36 Years of Australia’s Most Iconic Bird
The Australian Silver Kookaburra has been struck every year since 1990 — one of the longest-running annual silver bullion programs in the world. What sets it apart is simple: the reverse design changes every year without exception, making each annual release a genuinely distinct object rather than a variation on a standing design. For investors, that means a coin with legal-tender backing, four-nines purity, and global liquidity. For collectors, it means a series where completing the run is a meaningful endeavor — and where each year adds something new. The 2026 edition is the 36th release and the second to feature the effigy of King Charles III.
Design – Reverse
The 2026 reverse depicts a kookaburra in flight over a river, framed by lush trees and rugged rock formations. The kookaburra is the largest member of the kingfisher family and one of Australia’s most recognizable creatures, known worldwide for its laughing call. The design includes “KOOKABURRA,” the Perth Mint “P” mintmark, the 2026 year-date, weight, and purity, plus a micro-laser engraved security letter detectable only under magnification.
Design – Obverse
The obverse features Dan Thorne’s effigy of His Majesty King Charles III alongside the coin’s denomination — the standard obverse across Perth Mint’s current bullion program.
About the Perth Mint & the Kookaburra Series
Founded in 1899 and owned by the Government of Western Australia, the Perth Mint is one of the world’s most respected precious-metals producers. The Silver Kookaburra launched in 1990 as a .999 fine coin and was upgraded to .9999 purity in 2018. At a mintage of 500,000 for the 1 oz coin — modest next to programs like the American Silver Eagle — the Kookaburra maintains a meaningful scarcity that supports collector demand year over year.
Investment & Collector Appeal
The 2026 Silver Kookaburra delivers a full troy ounce of .9999 fine silver, legal-tender status, and the global recognition of the Perth Mint hallmark. Because the design changes annually, the 2026 coin cannot be replicated in future years — ideal for year-run collectors and portfolio stackers alike.
Packaging & Delivery
Each coin arrives in an individual acrylic capsule; multiples of 20 ship in sealed rolls. Summit Metals ships discreetly, fully insured, and trackable from our vault to your door.
