2 oz. Australian Kookaburra Silver Bullion Coin

---

1992 - 2009

---

In 1992, the Perth Mint added three bullion coins to the Silver Kookaburra bullion coin series; the 2 oz, 10 oz, and 1 Kilo silver bullion coins joined the already popular 1 oz Silver Kookaburra bullion coin in the series.

The Perth Mint hasn't minted the 2 oz bullion coin since 2009; however, all the other sized coins continue to be minted for the Australian Silver Kookaburra bullion coin series.

The Australian Kookaburra's call can be heard in the video below.
