The Kookaburra

The kookaburra is part of the kingfisher family and actually means ‘laughing bird.’ That's because the bird's call resembles a human smile. The animal grows to about 42 centimeters and lives mainly in the east and southeast of Australia. The special thing about the kookaburra is that it mainly hunts land animals and is not bound to water, like many kingfishers. He prefers to eat insects, snails, reptiles, frogs and sometimes other small birds.

Packaging

The 2 Troy ounce coin comes in a clear display with a unique image of the Kookaburra on the lid in honor of the 30th anniversary. You will also receive a numbered certificate of authenticity.
