| Additional information |
The Kookaburra silver bullion series, launched by the Perth Mint in 1990, changes its reverse design annually — a deliberate policy that drives collector demand beyond what pure silver weight would justify. The 2008 issue was produced during a period when silver spot prices were climbing sharply toward their post-Hunt Brothers highs, pulling general bullion interest with them.
Perth Mint coins of this era were struck under Australian legal tender authority via the Gold Corporation Act 1987, though the coins were never intended for circulation.
