Its compact size provides an accessible way to own physical platinum while the popular Kookaburra theme adds the artistic character and collectability associated with Perth Mint wildlife coinage.
Native to Australia, the kookaburra is famous for its distinctive call, often compared to human laughter. The bird has become a familiar symbol of the Australian landscape and has enjoyed a long association with Perth Mint precious metals coinage.
