The Perth Mint is very pleased to present the 2023 version of the Kookaburra coin! First issued in 1990, the series features the imagery of the iconic bird from the Wiradjuri word “gugubarra”. (which is onomatopoeic of its call)
The Kookaburra birds are native to Australia and New Guinea. They are related to the Kingfisher and one of the four species is the famous laughing kookaburra. His call is recognizable because it sounds like human laughter! It is often used in television, movies or even in themed parks, (it was even used for Flipper the Dolphin’s laugh).
On the reverse of this beautiful 10 oz silver coin, the 34th annual Kookaburra design portrays two birds perched on branches surrounding waratah, a native floral treasure. The attention to details is magnificent and you can clearly see their beautiful plumage and although not in colour, you can imagine their whitish head with its brown eye-stripe. Here, the design incorporates the inscription ‘KOOKABURRA’, The Perth Mint’s traditional ‘P’ mintmark, the 2023 year-date and the coin’s weight and purity.
The obverse of the coin depicts the 5th and last portrait of late Queen Elizabeth II.
It has been designed by Jody Clark who was at the age of 33, the youngest artist to have achieved the honour of portraying the Queen on the Royal Mint coins. In this now familiar design, Queen Elizabeth wears her diadem crown and the royal jewels and we can find her name, the legal tender of the coin 1 Dollar and “Australian” all around the coin.

A nice hefty coin. I quite like the kookaburra’s design this year personally. Will be holding on to this one as my first 10oz coin. As always great packaging and quick delivery.
