One of the most popular silver coins for sale is the Australian Kookaburra. Offered as a silver bullion coin by Perth Mint since 1990, the series is famous for its introduction of native wildlife as the design focus for Perth Mint bullion coins. The Australian Kookaburra also established Perth’s tradition of using new reverse designs with each release. Right now, 2003 1 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra Coins are available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 2003 1 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra offered here comes with an individual acrylic capsule. The 2003 release of the coins featured a maximum mintage limit of 300,000 coins, but sold roughly one-third that volume at a little more than 109,000 coins for the year. However, the 2003 release enjoyed a jump in demand of nearly 18,000 coins compared to 2002.
Kookaburras nest in tree hollows, typically in old gum trees. They do not build nests but instead lay their eggs on a bed of leaves or wood debris inside the hollow. Kookaburras lay clutches of 2 to 4 eggs, which are incubated by both parents. The incubation period lasts around 24 to 26 days.
The obverse side of the 2003 Australian Silver Kookaburra comes with an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The Queen is shown here in right-profile relief wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. This effigy was created in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley and was the longest-used portrait of the Queen during her record-setting reign.
On the reverse of 2003 1 oz Silver Kookaburra Coins, you will find a depiction of a kookaburra. This year’s exclusive design shows the bird perched on a short branch with its wings at its sides. Kookaburras are fiercely territorial and will defend their territory from intruders, including other kookaburras and birds of prey.
