The silver Kookaburra 2012 coin is minted in 1 kilo of pure silver. It is a beautiful investment coin that also enjoys collector's value because of the annually renewed design. Since 1992, the Kookaburra has been published by the Perth Mint in Australia. This beautiful silver coin comes in a sturdy plastic capsule, which keeps the coins in good condition.
The 2012 edition of the silver 1 kilo Kookaburra coin was designed by Darryl Bellotti. This unique design depicts a Kookaburra with open mouth, perched on a branch with Eucalyptus leaves.
The obverse of the silver Kookaburra is designed by Ian Rank-Broadley with an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
In 1992, the Perth Mint introduced the silver Kookaburra investment coin, weighing one ounce, ten ounces and one kilogram (32.15 ounces). Initially, the design of the coins remained the same every year, but now the Kookaburra is issued with a new design every year.

People think of silver as the poor man's gold, which is absolutely the wrong way to look at it. Gold has the most monetary character, but silver moves in times when a financial system is under pressure, at least as much as gold.
Silver is a commodity and monetary metal. Gold and silver have related to each other to some extent over a long history; This is called the gold-silver ratio. Silver has not been this cheap in 25 years compared to gold.
