Comment
Released by the Perth Mint in 2013 this coin is the part of Second Series of Discover Australia Fine Silver (.999) Silver coins. The coin was released individually and as part of a Five coin Set.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique pad-printed design of a kookaburra, a native Australian bird known for its distinctive laughter-like call, on the reverse side. This design is a departure from the traditional coin designs that feature the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse and a symbol of Australia on the reverse. The use of pad printing technology allows for a high level of detail and color accuracy, making the kookaburra design stand out even more. This coin is a great example of how numismatic design can be used to showcase a country's unique wildlife and natural beauty.
