1990 Australian Kookaburra – 1oz Silver Coin (In Capsule)

The inaugural 1990 Australian Kookaburra is the very first release in the now‑iconic Kookaburra bullion and collector series. Struck by the Perth Mint in .999 fine silver, this coin features the original Kookaburra design — a detailed depiction of the bird perched on a branch, surrounded by native foliage. Highly sought after for its historical significance and low‑mintage early‑series appeal.

The obverse displays the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II along with the denomination 5 Dollars. This example is housed in its protective plastic capsule, preserving its condition and ensuring the frosted devices and brilliant fields remain crisp.
