A stunning synthesis of glorious full-colour, flawless Prooflike quality and 99.9% pure silver-plating, this eye-catching commemorative forms a memorable tribute to Australia’s Kookaburra!
Famous for its raucous laughing call, the Kookaburra is known as ‘the King of the Bush’. Found throughout eastern Australia, the Kookaburra is happy in a variety of environments – from tropical rainforests to arid plains to suburban backyards. Taking its name from the indigenous word ‘guuguubarra’, this distinctive bird has appeared on stamps & coins, in movies, songs, books, television & radio, and as an Australian sporting mascot.
A must-have for bird-lovers and collectors worldwide, the design of the Kookaburra on this enchanting commemorative is based on an illustration from The Birds of Australia. The first comprehensive ornithological survey of Australia, The Birds of Australia was created by ‘the Father of Australian Ornithology’, John Gould. It included magnificent illustrations by, among others, Elizabeth Gould, John Gould’s wife, including this stunning depiction of the Kookaburra. A strictly limited edition, the mintage of this unique type has been set at just 5,000.
