The debut issue featured only this 1 oz silver version and had a capped mintage of 300,000 coins, which sold out in 1990. The 1991 release was the only other time the Kookaburra series offered just a single 1 oz coin. **Obverse** On the obverse of the 1990 Australian Silver Kookaburra, youll find the third-generation depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. This design, created by Raphael Maklouf in 1985, shows the Queen in right-profile relief wearing the George IV State Diadem. This particular portrait was the shortest-used during her reign. **Reverse** The reverse of the 1990 1 oz Silver Kookaburra Coin carries the first-ever design of the collection. Created by Stuart Devlin, it shows a kookaburra perched on a tree stump in right-profile relief, beginning the annual tradition of changing designs. **History** When the Perth Mint released the Silver Kookaburra in 1990, it introduced what would become one of its longest-running and most collected silver coin programs. Each years new design featuring Australias native bird makes the series appealing to both investors and collectors. **Ordering** Please contact BGASC if you have any questions.
