Silver Five Ounces 2021 Australian Kookaburra, Coin from Australia - detailed information
| ||||||
The Australian five ounces silver piece (abbreviated as 5 oz and designated with Ag for "silver") is a bullion and commemorative coin format. Uniquely, in Australia there are two mints authorised to strike legal tender: the Royal Australian Mint (which also makes the country's circulating coinage) and the Perth Mint which only makes collector and bullion coins, as well as other bullion products. Both mints endeavour to create coins with attractive designs, and to introduce new designs and themes often, in order to raise the numismatic value of the coins over the value of previous metal used. This coin is part of the long-running Australian Kookaburra range by the Perth Mint. The Mint says about it: Now in its fourth decade and as popular as ever, the Australian Kookaburra is an iconic coin series featuring annual designs of one of Australia’s most recognisable birds. Famed for its raucous laughing call, the kookaburra is heard across Australia - from the outback to the back yard. Traditionally motifs on a coin have raised relief. However, where the design is described as incused, it is pressed into the surface of the blank. | ||||||
