{{/presale}}Back in 1990, The Perth Mint unveiled the Australian Kookaburra coin, setting a precedent as the pioneering silver bullion coin featuring native wildlife. This remarkable release marked one of two major bullion coins celebrating Australia’s fauna from The Perth Mint. The esteemed 2001 Australian Kookaburra 1 oz Silver Coin is now available for acquisition at Provident Metals.

In 1990, the Perth Mint launched the Australian Kookaburra coin series, marking the beginning of a cherished tradition of featuring native wildlife in exquisite silver.
Obverse
Adorning the obverse of the 2001 Kookaburra 1 oz Silver Coin is Queen Elizabeth II, portrayed in an elegant profile by Ian Rank-Broadley, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. Inscriptions read ELIZABETH II, AUSTRALIA, and 1 DOLLAR.
Reverse
Turning to the reverse, the 2001 Australian Kookaburra Silver Coin captures a pair of kookaburras perched on a branch, their bond evident as they sit back-to-back, symbolizing loyalty and companionship. Inscriptions include THE AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA, 1 OZ. 999 SILVER, and 2001.
History
Kookaburras are carnivorous birds that primarily feed on small animals such as insects, worms, lizards, snakes, frogs, and even small birds and mammals. They hunt by perching on a high vantage point and swooping down to catch their prey.
