The Australian Kookaburra series, running since 1990, changes its reverse design annually — a deliberate policy that drives year-on-year collector demand and has kept the series commercially viable for over three decades. The 2013 issue was struck at the Perth Mint, which operates under a Western Australian government mandate rather than the federal Reserve Bank structure, giving it unusual autonomy over bullion program decisions.
