2023 10 oz Australian Kookaburra Silver Coin
One of the advantages of buying larger silver coins is the possibility of acquiring silver bullion in bulk. 10 oz silver coins weigh ten times a usual 1 oz coin, but still, they offer easy transportation and storage.
The Australian Kookaburra Series from the Perth Mint meet investors' and collectors’ varied interests as they comprise this silver 10 oz coin, besides the 1-troy-ounce and the 1-kilo coins.
As the Kookaburra is the motif of the series, each annual strike displays the bird differently, making the Silver Kookaburras an exciting collectible for those who appreciate coins for that purpose.
Made of 99.99% pure silver, the 10 oz coin is legal tender and holds a face value of 10 dollars, fully backed by the Australian Government.

The Design
The obverse displays a more mature version of the former monarch, Queen Elizabeth II. The artist Jody Clark portrayed an 89-year-old Queen wearing the George IV Diadem State Crown. Encircling the image, the inscriptions read: “ELIZABETH II,” “AUSTRALIA,” and “10 DOLLARS.”
The Kookaburra design is on the reverse side. The 2023 edition showcases two birds perched on branches, with waratah flowers around them. The series name, “KOOKABURRA,” is on the upper right. The discreet “P” stands for the Perth Mint mintmark, and the inscriptions on the left refer to the year of mintage, weight, fineness, and metal content: “2023 10 oz 9999 SILVER.”
The Perth Mint
The Perth Mint was founded to be one of the British Royal Mint’s facilities in colonial Australia back in 1899, which makes it the oldest operating facility in the country. With over 120 years of experience, the mint has fabricated high-quality bullion pieces which guaranteed its recognition among the most successful mints in the world.
