2019 Australia 1 Dollar 1-oz Silver Kookaburra NGC MS69 First Releases

The Silver Kookaburra Goes Moon Gazing on an All-New Design!

After years of flying, cackling and hunting for food, Australia’s famous Kookaburra finally takes a much-needed break on the 2019 release from the famed Perth Mint. This year’s new, one-year-only design depicts a Kookaburra perched on a branch with the moon rising in the background casting a reflection on a peaceful pool of water.

The incredible design on this legal-tender one-ounce silver coin is a magnificent testament to the craftsmanship and expertise of the designers and engravers at Australia’s prestigious Perth Mint. Struck in highly-pure 99.99% silver, the 2019 Australia One-Ounce Silver Kookaburra is a masterpiece. In addition, the coins in this offer have been certified and graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) as being in near-perfect Mint-State-69 (MS69) condition, a distinction that means your almost-flawless coin will showcase an impressive full strike and indistinguishable imperfections -- well above and beyond the quality of the vast majority of coins in the series.

In addition, your silver kookaburra will also be certified as a First Releases (FR) coin by NGC, meaning that it was among the first struck by the mint and was verified within the first 30 days of issue. Collectors seek out these coins because they are produced with new dies and considered to have sharper strikes and deeper mirrors than those that are struck later. Also, the population of coins labeled First Releases is only a fraction of the total mintage.

The Kookaburra earned the nicknamed the “bushman’s clock” because of its early dawn and dusk cackling chorus. Native to eastern Australia, the Kookaburra feeds primarily on insects and worms but is also known to hunt snakes and other small mammals, making them a friendly site to farmers in the region.

This year’s kookaburra will be a friendly sight in your collection. This latest coin in the immensely popular Silver Kookaburra series has a limited mintage of only 500,000 coins, creating a great collectible opportunity. Order yours today!
