The kookaburra is one of Australia’s most familiar native birds and holds a special place in the country’s cultural identity. Known for its loud, laugh-like call, the kookaburra is closely associated with life in the Australian bush and has appeared for generations in songs, stories, and popular media. This well-loved bird is also a long-running feature of Perth Mint coin programs. Today, 2026 1 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra Coins are available online at BullionMax.

The obverse design of the 2026 1 oz Silver Kookaburra Coin features a left-facing portrait of King Charles III. Created by designer Dan Thorne, this portrait shows His Majesty without a crown and reflects a clean, modern style. This image represents the first official coin portrait of King Charles III to appear on Australian coinage, marking a new chapter in the nation’s circulating and bullion issues.

On the reverse of the 2026 1 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra, a single kookaburra is shown in left-profile relief while flying above a scenic coastal landscape. Kookaburras are known for their strong social bonds, and at sunrise and sunset, families often gather to perform communal calling. These vocal displays combine into the loud, laughing chorus that has made the bird famous worldwide.

This calling behavior plays an important role in daily life for kookaburras, helping them define territory and communicate with nearby groups. The coordinated sounds echo across the landscape, especially in the evening, creating a recognizable atmosphere as dusk settles over the bush. The reverse design captures both the motion of the bird in flight and the natural beauty of its habitat.

These 2026 1 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra Coins are offered in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Individual coins are housed in protective plastic capsules. Orders of multiple coins are packaged in capsules and secured in sealed rolls of 20 coins. Bulk quantities of 100 coins are shipped in mint boxes containing five rolls.
