The Perth Mint proudly unveils a spectacular tribute to one of its most beloved and enduring coin series with the Australian Kookaburra 2025 2oz Silver Proof High Relief Gilded Coin. Celebrating the 35th anniversary of the iconic Australian Kookaburra, this exquisite release highlights the rich legacy of a bird whose distinctive laughing call echoes across the nation—from the vast outback to suburban backyards.
Struck from 2oz of 99.99% pure silver, the coin showcases an intricate high relief design that brings exceptional depth and dimension to its artwork. The reverse features a majestic kookaburra perched on a tree branch, its detailed form complemented by 24-carat gold gilding on both the bird and the coin’s outer ring. Radiant lines in the background evoke the burst of the sun, symbolizing light, vitality, and the enduring spirit of the Australian landscape.
Adding historical significance, a special privy mark pays homage to the original 1990 Kookaburra design—creating a tangible link between past and present. The reverse also bears the inscriptions ‘KOOKABURRA 35th ANNIVERSARY’, The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, and the coin’s weight, purity, and 2025 year-date.
With its stunning presentation and limited availability, this high-relief gilded coin is a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate both natural beauty and numismatic excellence.
