Story

Coin show special

The Australian Kookaburra is a sought-after coin series featuring annual designs of our iconic ‘laughing’ bird. In 2023, four coloured privy mark issues will be issued to mark ANDA Money Expo events in Brisbane, Perth, Melbourne and Sydney.

Coloured privy mark

The Melbourne Money Expo ANDA Special portrays two kookaburras perched on the branches of a shrub displaying the flowers of Australian native waratah. As well as The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark, the design includes a coloured privy mark representation of a helmeted honeyeater, a rare yellow, black and olive feathered bird with golden tufts on either side of its head that became Victoria’s bird emblem in 1971.
