| Beschrijving keerzijde | Three kookaburras (Dacelo novaeguineae) are depicted perched together on a diagonal branch set against a deeply mirrored proof field, rendered in fine detail by engraver Wade Robinson. The birds face different directions, showcasing their characteristic stocky build and prominent beaks with naturalistic feather texturing. The legend 'DISCOVER AUSTRALIA' arches around the upper periphery, while the date '2006' appears to the lower left of the central device. The lower arc bears the inscriptions 'KOOKABURRA 1/10oz. 9999 GOLD', with the Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark and the engraver's initials 'WR' flanking the design near the lower right. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The 2006 issue falls within the Australian Lunar and Kookaburra programs at a point when the Perth Mint was aggressively expanding its bullion and proof coinage into fractional denominations to capture the growing international collector-investor market. The $15 face value denomination — a legal tender assignment with no practical circulation role — reflects the Australian government's standing arrangement that pegs nominal face values to these fractional gold weights at rates far below spot.
The 4th Portrait of Elizabeth II, by Ian Rank-Broadley, was adopted across Commonwealth coinage from 1998 onward following the standard rotation cycle.
