This first-generation effigy was created by Dan Thorne. **Reverse** The reverse of the 2026 1/2 oz Proof Silver Newborn Coin shows three baby animals gathered together. A young kangaroo takes the center position, with a kookaburra chick on the right side and a baby koala on the left. The background includes festive details, and the engraving CONGRATULATIONS appears above the animals. **History** Australias baby animals have some fascinating early-life differences. Koala joeys arrive tiny and underdeveloped, then move into the mothers pouch to grow for months before they begin exploring the outside world. Kangaroo joeys follow a similar routine, being born after a short gestation and then developing in the pouch for an extended time. Kookaburras begin life in eggs, and chicks hatch after a short incubation period, starting out blind and without feathers. **Ordering** Please contact BGASC with any questions about silver for sale.
