2024 Australia $10 10-oz Silver Kookaburra BU

Australia's Little Bird From "Down Under" Returns In 2024

Australia's incredibly popular Kookaburra series has been a worldwide hit ever since it first appeared in 1990. That annual coin release featuring the little bird from "Down Under" returns in 2024 and this time it features for the first time the portrait of King Charles III, replacing the effigy of his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away in 2022. With its high silver content, razor-sharp strikes, and delightful one-year-only designs, Australia's Silver Kookaburra has become a global phenomenon–and one you won't want to miss in 2024!

New One-Year-Only Kookaburra Design

Struck in ten full ounces of highly pure 99.99% silver, this year's new, one-year-only design depicts a kookaburra in flight over a gorge with a snake in its talons. While native to eastern Australia, Kookaburras were introduced in other areas to control snake numbers and are now found throughout the continent. According to naturalists, and wildlife experts, Kookaburras are renowned snake eaters capable of overpowering some of the most venomous snakes in the world thanks to certain proteins inside their blood which neutralize the toxin, rendering it harmless for consumption. Engraved around the coin's rim are the words "KOOKABURRA" and the coin's year date, weight, silver purity, and a "P125" mint mark in honor of the Perth Mint's 125th Anniversary in 2024. Additionally, each coin's reverse includes a security feature in the form of a micro-laser engraved letter within the coin's design that is detectable only under a magnifying glass.
