The Australian Kookaburra is the longest-running silver bullion series at the Perth Mint. Introduced in 1990, it was the first bullion coin series from Perth Mint, along with the Gold Kangaroo, to feature fresh depictions each year of a native Australian species on the reverse of bullion coins. Right now, 2002 1 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra Coins are available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each of the 2002 1 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra Coins offered here comes with a protective plastic capsule. These coins had a maximum mintage of 300,000 coins, with sales reaching less than one-third that level. A total of 91,604 coins were sold in 2002, showing a slowing trend for the 1 oz Silver Kookaburra in the early 21st century.
Kookaburras are predominantly found along the eastern and southern coastlines of Australia, with the laughing kookaburra ranging from Cape York Peninsula in Far North Queensland, throughout New South Wales, Victoria, and into parts of South Australia. The blue-winged kookaburra (Dacelo leachii) occupies a more northern distribution, spanning from the Kimberley region in Western Australia across northern Australia to northern Queensland.
The obverse of the 2002 Australian Silver Kookaburra comes with a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This is the fifth-generation bust of Her Majesty to grace Australian coins and offers a right-profile relief that shows the Queen wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara.
On the reverse of 2002 1 oz Silver Kookaburra Coins, you’ll find a depiction of a kookaburra in flight with the silhouette of the Australian continent in the background. Kookaburras thrive in various habitats across the continent, including eucalypt forests, woodlands, city parks, and suburban gardens, showing remarkable adaptability to human-modified landscapes.
