With the 2012 release, the elusive kookaburra can be seen perched on the branch of the Eucalyptus tree where it can often be found in its native Australia. The 2012 Silver Kookaburra bird is also surrounded by the leaves of the Eucalyptus branch on which he’s perched. Because the kookaburra’s song sounds remarkably like a human laugh, the kookaburra has often been featured in poetry and folk music as a joyful presence, making him a beloved symbol by Australians. Therefore, featuring the kookaburra on its flagship coin series may explain why its value by collectors has remained steady through the years. Also on the obverse side of the coin is the year of issuance and weight labeled clearly as 1 KILO 999 SILVER. Just as with all issues, the reverse side of the coin bears the beautifully struck image of Queen Elizabeth II who has served as the constitutional monarch of Australia and England for over 60 years. Her image was exquisitely sculpted by famed artist, Ian Rank-Broadley and is set in a beautiful proof finish. Because her reign is the second longest in England’s history, her place in history is assured. Collectors may find it interesting to note that 2012 is the year Elizabeth celebrated her diamond birthday with a Diamond Jubilee held in her honor. We offer the 2012 Silver Kookaburra to our customers with great pride knowing they will enjoy its new design as much as the designs of years past.
