| Additional information |
The Kookaburra series launched in 1990 as Perth Mint's answer to the Lunar and Britannia programs, designed from the outset to compete in the international bullion collector market. The high-relief variant of the 10-dollar issue was a deliberate premium tier above the standard strike, requiring slower press speeds and multiple strikes per planchet — a production constraint that kept mintages substantially lower than the regular bullion releases of the same year.
KM#351 spans two calendar years, reflecting Perth Mint's practice at the time of issuing coins dated to the next year before that year had actually begun.
