| Beschrijving keerzijde | A kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae) rendered in high relief and selectively coloured in deep blue tones perches in three-quarter view upon a strand of barbed wire, its head turned downward in a characteristic hunting pose. Below the bird, a detailed spider's web occupies the lower left of the inner field, adding a naturalistic Australian bush setting to the composition. The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark appears discreetly to the left of the web. The inscription 'THE AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA' arcs along the upper legend, while '10oz 999 SILVER' is inscribed to the right of the bird and the date '2008' appears in the lower exergue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Kookaburra bullion series, running since 1990, changes its reverse design annually — a deliberate strategy by the Perth Mint to drive collector demand on top of pure silver value. The 2008 high-relief issue pushed the dies significantly harder than standard bullion strikes, requiring slower production rates and more frequent die replacement to achieve the pronounced depth of field. High-relief coins of this size and weight place enormous stress on the planchet edges during striking, and the 311-gram format made that engineering problem considerably harder to solve than in smaller issues.
