First released by the Perth Mint in 1990, the Australian Silver Kookaburra Series has grown into one of the best-known bullion coin programs worldwide. Each year features a new image of the iconic kookaburra, helping the series remain popular with both investors and collectors. Since 2018, the coins have been struck in .9999 pure silver, and this issue offers a weight of two troy ounces. With detailed designs and limited mintages, the series continues to stand out. Today, 2000 2 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra Coins are available from BullionMax.

Coin Highlights:

• Comes with an individual capsule!
• 11th year for the Silver Kookaburra Series!
• Final mintage of only 23,872 coins!
• Contains 2 troy oz of .999 pure silver.
• The face value of $2 (AUD) is backed by the Australian government.
• On the obverse is Queen Elizabeth II.
• The reverse features a lone kookaburra perched on a small branch.

The 2000 release is especially notable as a millennium issue, marking the beginning of a new century. This 2 oz silver coin continued the tradition of changing the reverse design each year while maintaining the trusted specifications collectors expect from the series. Because it was issued in the year 2000, many collectors view it as an important date within the program, adding an extra layer of historical interest alongside its silver value.

Each 2000 2 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra Coin offered here comes with an individual protective capsule. The total mintage for the 2 oz coin was limited to 23,872 pieces. While this represented a slight increase over the 1999 2 oz issue, it was still lower than mintages seen in earlier years, such as 1997 and prior releases.

The obverse of the 2000 Australian Silver Kookaburra Coin displays Ian Rank-Broadley’s fourth-generation portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Introduced in 1999, this right-facing image shows the Queen wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. The design has appeared on many modern Australian coins and remains a familiar feature for collectors.

The reverse of the 2000 2 oz Silver Kookaburra Coin showcases a single kookaburra resting on a small branch. The detailed engraving highlights the bird’s strong beak, full body, and alert stance. Careful background details add depth to the scene and reflect the Perth Mint’s attention to quality and craftsmanship.
