| Additional information |
The June privy mark variant of the 2000 Kookaburra dollar was issued as part of Perth Mint's monthly privy program, a marketing initiative that ran through several years of the bullion series to drive collector demand by fragmenting annual issues into multiple limited sub-releases. Each monthly variant was produced in deliberately restricted quantities, making the complete twelve-piece run for any given year genuinely difficult to assemble.
KM#489.2 distinguishes this piece from the base bullion issue. The privy appears on the reverse field, struck from dedicated dies rather than punched after minting.
