Kookaburras are known for their loud, distinctive call that sounds like laughter. These birds are native to eastern and southeastern Australia, where they live in a wide range of environments—from tropical forests in Queensland to the cooler regions of Victoria and South Australia.

You’ll often find kookaburras in coastal woodlands and eucalyptus forests, where they nest in tree hollows and feed on insects, small reptiles, and other prey. They’ve also adapted well to life near people, living in suburban yards and farmland across their range.

Each 2025 5 oz Australian Silver Kookaburra Incused Coin available here comes with special packaging from the Perth Mint. This includes a black display case with a clear lid, a themed shipper, and a Certificate of Authenticity. The coin is incuse struck, meaning the design is pressed into the coin’s surface for a different texture than traditional raised designs.

The obverse of the coin features King Charles III. This left-profile portrait was created by Dan Thorne in 2024 and marks the first time His Majesty appears on Australian coins. In this image, he is shown without a crown.

On the reverse of the 2025 Silver Kookaburra Incused Coin, you’ll see a new kookaburra design along with a special privy mark. The main artwork shows a kookaburra perched in a tree, and the small privy features the original design used in the series’ first release in 1990, celebrating the 35th anniversary of the Silver Kookaburra.
