A laughing kookaburra, the largest member of the kingfisher species, is synonymous with the Australian bush. In 2016, the famous Perth Mint Silver Kookaburra's design features a kookaburra perched on a fence post amidst an Australian landscape.
The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark and year-date are included in the design.
Issued as Australian legal tender, the obverse of each coin bears the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on its obverse.
