Celebrating an Australian Icon

First issued in 1990, the Australian Kookaburra series has become one of the Perth Mint’s most beloved annual releases. Depicting the distinctive bird known for its unmistakable laughing call, this series honours a true symbol of the Australian bush — from remote outback landscapes to suburban backyards.

Incused Kookaburra Design

Breaking from traditional raised relief, the incused technique presses the design into the coin’s surface, creating a striking visual depth and texture.
The 2022 design features a kookaburra perched on an ornamental bird bath, surrounded by Agapanthus flowers, a common sight in Australian gardens. The design also includes The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, signifying its authenticity and origin.
