Australian Kookaburra 1 oz. Silver 2005

The Perth Mint has been standing and in production since 1899. This particular mint has seen its share of history, including the ever famous gold rushes. In fact, the Perth Mint played an invaluable role during the gold rushes by trading goods for gold among the hard-working miners. Miners usually never made the same amount they found in gold so being provided basic every day life goods was worth their while. Between 1899 and now, the Perth Mint has become the oldest, working mint in Australia, being witness to fellow mints closing down. This outstanding mint has made quite the name for itself, producing popular coin collections and great quality bullion products that keep investors coming back for more. The Silver Kookaburra series is among the coin collections currently in high demand. This collection contains competitively low mintages, excellent packaging, and beautiful craftsmanship.

Your 2005 Silver Kookaburra coin is guaranteed to be one ounce of .999 fine silver and is packaged in an airtight capsule for shipment and storage. Your coin also shines from the "newly minted" luster of the brilliant uncirculated coin with proof-like features.

Coin Highlights
-.999 fine silver
-BU condition

-Obverse: The obverse contains an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, an astounding portrait designed by the famous sculptor, Ian Rank-Broadley. Broadley's design has received accolades for its boldness in celebrating the Queen's aging and maturity. The Queen is realistically portrayed, with fine lines and wrinkles apparent on her face, resulting in an older but still lovely Queen. The coin's denomination of 1 dollar is also included in elegance on the obverse side of the coin.
-Reverse: The stunning bird, on the 2005 kookaburra coin, is sitting on a beloved eucalyptus branch, glimmering with a proof-like finish. The rest of the coin displays a matte, frosted finish, which elegantly bears the coin series' name, the coin's purity, and the date of mintage.
