Struck by Australia's historic Perth Mint, this 1998 silver dollar showcases one of the nation's most recognizable avian symbols. The coin is minted from one troy ounce of 0.999 fine silver, combining precious metal purity with detailed artistry. This particular piece has achieved a certified grade of Mint State 69, indicating its exceptional preservation and striking quality. The reverse side of the coin features a design by Louise Pinder, depicting a laughing kookaburra resting quietly on a wooden fence. Surrounding this central image are the inscriptions confirming the coin's weight, purity, and year of issue, reading "THE AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA," "1998," and "1 oz. 999 SILVER." On the obverse, the coin displays the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II created by Ian Rank-Broadley. This side carries the official face value of "1 DOLLAR" along with the inscriptions "ELIZABETH II" and "AUSTRALIA." With a recorded mintage of 103,119 pieces, this coin remains a fascinating study in modern Australian numismatics.
