The Australian Kookaburra was first issued in 1990.
It is a series of silver coins depicting the iconic bird, whose name is derived from the word "gugubarra" from the Wiradjuri Indian tribe. First Nations people, who have lived here for tens of thousands of years, have told numerous stories about the Kookaburra and it has subsequently been featured in contemporary Australian art and literature.

The coin’s reverse portrays an image of the kookaburra in flight over a river, framed by lush trees and rugged rocks. Included in the design is the inscription ‘KOOKABURRA’, along with The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, and the coin’s weight, purity, and 2026 year-date.

The coin’s obverse bears the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, and the coin’s monetary denomination.

Each coin is housed in a protective plastic capsule.
