2024 Kookaburra Kaa-Kaa 2oz Silver Antiqued Coloured Coin

A large and distinctive kingfisher, the kookaburra’s unmistakable ‘koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-kaa-kaa-kaa’ chorus ranks among Australia's most recognizable bird calls. Native to eastern Australia, where it has deep cultural significance for Aboriginal people, this iconic bird was introduced to the south-western region of Western Australia in the late 1890s. The Nyoongar people, the original inhabitants of this area, call it ‘kaa kaa’. Similar to the eastern Aboriginal term ‘gugubarra’, the Nyoongar name for the kookaburra echoes the bird's distinctive laugh-like call. Struck by The Perth Mint from 2oz of 99.99% pure silver, this coin is issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965. The Perth Mint will release no more than 2,000 of the Kookaburra Kaa Kaa 2024 2oz Silver Antiqued Coloured Coin.
