2017 Australia 1 oz Silver Kookaburra MS-70 NGC
Introduced in 1990, the Australian Kookaburra series has captivated observers with its changing depictions of the continent's most famous bush bird. The 2017 release features a charming scene of two kookaburras resting together on a rustic wooden fence. Struck in one ounce of 0.999 fine silver by the Perth Mint, this coin carries the traditional 'P' mint mark on its reverse, alongside the year, weight, and purity inscriptions. The obverse displays the classic effigy of Queen Elizabeth II designed by Ian Rank-Broadley, surrounded by the inscriptions of her name, the issuing nation of Australia, and the face value of 1 Dollar. This particular specimen has been certified in perfect Mint State 70 condition, indicating a flawless strike with no visible imperfections under magnification. Since 2011, these annual silver releases have been limited to a maximum production of 500,000 pieces, making each year's unique design a distinct moment in modern numismatic history.
