| Beschrijving keerzijde | A highly detailed, high-relief effigy of a laughing kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae) perched facing left on a eucalyptus branch with foliage, set against a burnished field with a subtle circular shadow motif suggesting a full moon. The legend 'THE AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA' arcs along the upper periphery within a beaded border, while the date '2005', weight specification '10OZ. 999 SILVER', and the Perth Mint privy mark 'SA' are inscribed along the lower field. The naturalistic rendering of the bird's plumage is rendered in frosted relief contrasting with the mirror-polished background. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Australian Kookaburra series, running continuously since 1990, is one of the few bullion programs that mandates a new reverse design every year — a deliberate strategy by the Perth Mint to drive collector demand on top of raw silver value. The 2005 issue sits in the middle years of the series, before the mint began experimenting with privy marks and colourized variants that now crowd the later catalogue.
At 311.1 grams of .999 silver, these 10-dollar coins were struck as ten-ounce pieces — a size that saw relatively modest mintage figures compared to the one-ounce flagship, making survivors in original capsule condition meaningfully harder to source than the bullion weight alone suggests.
