Thanks You for Visiting!

My name is Steven Warrenfeltz, I created this guide to give you an honest place, on the web, that provides reliable bullion market information.

This guide is a little unusual to other guides because it not only offers bullion market information, it also advocates for Gold Nanoparticle Cancer Research, and supports individuals who are Battling cancer

A few decades ago, I made a graveside promise to a childhood friend who died of cancer that I would help those who are battling cancer.

I created this guide to help people understand how precious metals help them preserve the value of their savings and or investments while trying to fulfill a promise.

Design of the
10 oz. Australian Silver Kookaburra Bullion Coin

Obverse

The Silver Kookaburra is Australia's Perth Mint longest-running silver bullion coin series, and in 2020 it turned 30 years old.

2019 Kookaburra
Obverse

To commemorate the silver bullion coin's landmark release, each coin features a special obverse bearing the original design of Stuart Devlin's depiction of a kookaburra on a tree stump surrounded by native foliage as it appeared on the reverse side of the 1990 Australian Kookaburra Silver Bullion Coin.

Above the inaugural (reverse) image of the Kookaburra bullion coin is the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, with the dates that mark the coin's 30th Anniversary 1990 - 2020.

Around the perimeter of the obverse side are the words "AUSTRALIA," "ELIZABETH II" and the silver bullion coin's face value of "10 DOLLARS."

The Edge of the silver bullion coin is Reeded.

Reverse

Each year, the reverse side of the Ten Ounce (troy) Australian Silver Kookaburra bullion coin unveils a new design of the Kookaburra.

The 2020 Silver Kookaburra depicts the bird sitting near the edge of a roof, as the sun's raise streak across the sky, in the background.

The words "AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA" are inscribed across the top of the silver bullion coin.

'30TH ANNIVERSARY' is inscribed at the bottom of the silver coin to commemorate its anniversary.

Also inscribed along the perimeter of the silver bullion coin is its "Year of Issue," the coins weight of "10OZ," and its purity of "9999 SILVER."

The silver bullion coin has The Perth Mint's 'Mint Mark' of "P."

Lastly, the reverse was designed by Jennifer McKenna, her initials 'JM' can be seen behind the kookaburra, under the sun.

Note: From 1990 - 2007 the Silver Kookaburra bullion coin did not have a Mint Mark.
