The reverse side of the Silver Kookaburra bullion coin unveils a new design of the Kookaburra each year.

Pictured above is the 2003, 2 oz. Silver Kookaburra bullion coin, this year's reverse coin design was different from most years.

Normally the coin's name, "AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA" is inscribed along the top of the Silver Kookaburra coin. (Seen here in the 1oz. coin)

In the 2003 version, the name of the coin was inscribed below the Silver Kookaburra design.

Inscribed below the coin's name is it's " Year of Issue," Weight of "2oz" and the purity of the coin "999 SILVER."

The bullion coin's edge is Reeded.

Note: From 1990 - 2007 the Silver Kookaburra bullion coin did not have a Mint Mark. Since 2008, the silver bullion coin has had the "P" Mint Mark representing the Perth Mint.
