The 1 kilo silver Kookaburra 2015 coin is named after the largest kingfisher in the world. The silver grade of the Kookaburra is 999/1000 with a face value of $30 AUD. As a result, the coin has the status of legal tender. All Kookaburra coins come in a hard plastic capsule by default.
The silver Kookaburra was issued in 1990 by the Australian Perth Mint in one troy ounce. It wasn't until a year later that variants in 2 troy ounces, 10 troy ounces and one kilogram were added. The design of the Kookaburra is changed every year, which is one of the reasons why the coin is very popular with collectors.
The design of the coin consists on one side: the new 2015 design of the Kookaburra with the words "AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA", the respective year of issue, volume and purity "2015 1 KILO 999 SILVER". The other side shows a portrait of "Elizabeth II Australia", which was subjected to minor changes over time. The portrait is framed all around with the inscription "ELIZABETH II AUSTRALIA * 30 DOLLARS *". The edge of the Kookaburra is ribbed without an inscription.
The kilo coins come in plastic coin capsules. These coin capsules are not necessarily completely shiny, despite the fact that they are delivered to us directly from the supplier.

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.
