The Royal Australian Mint's Mini Money gold coin series will feature a selection of Australia's iconic native animals. The Kookaburra, one of Australia's most recognisable and distinctive birds, is presented on the second coin.

Kookaburras can be found throughout eastern Australia, from Queensland to South Australia, and have been widely introduced into Tasmania, Western Australia and even New Zealand.

The Kookaburra is a large kingfisher bird, but unlike other kingfishers, the kookaburra rarely eats fish. With an estimated population of 65 million, kookaburra's can be typically found in eucalyptus forest and woodlands throughout Australia and as well as urban parks, gardens and backyards - sometimes stealing food!

This $5 coin contains a half gram of 99.99% gold, packaged in an attractive presentation capsule. The mintage is limited to just 5,000 units. This is an affordable product for anyone interested in collecting gold coins and Australia's distinctive wildlife. Secure yours today - click add to cart now!
