Proof Quality 99.9% Pure Silver

Each coin is struck by The Perth Mint from 5oz of 99.9% pure silver in proof quality.

2016 Kookaburra Design in High Relief

The coin's reverse depicts a kookaburra perched on a fence post amidst an Australian landscape. The design includes the inscription AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA, The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark, and the 2016 year-date.

The coin's high relief reverse and obverse are minted on concave surfaces to ensure the optimum flow of metal is achieved by the strike of the die.
