Kookaburras are stocky, kingfisher-like birds native to Australia and New Guinea, most recognizable for their disproportionately large heads and robust, dagger-like bills designed for hunting. These native Australian birds have featured on one of Perth Mint’s longest-running silver bullion collections since 1990. Right now, 2012 1 Kilo Australian Silver Kookaburra Coins are available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each of the 2012 1 Kilo Australian Silver Kookaburra Coins comes with an individual plastic capsule. The 2012 issue included 1 Kilo, 10 oz, and 1 oz silver coins, with the 1 oz silver coin seeing the highest sales at 500,000 coins in total. These 1 Kilo coins had the second-highest mintage at 51,596 coins.
The largest species of kookaburra, the laughing kookaburra, features a cream-colored body with brown wings, a striking dark brown eye-stripe, and subtle blue accents on its wings, creating a distinctive appearance that helps them blend into their woodland habitat.
The obverse of 2012 Australian Silver Kookaburras comes with the popular fifth-generation portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Designed in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley, this right-profile effigy depicts Her Majesty with the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara.
On the reverse of 2012 1 Kilo Silver Kookaburra Coins, you will find the image of a large kookaburra perched on a branch. Perhaps their most remarkable physical adaptation is their powerful bill, which they use with surgical precision to strike and seize prey ranging from insects to small reptiles and even venomous snakes.
