| 背面描述 | A kookaburra perched on a branch occupies the central field, rendered in high relief with fine feather detail characteristic of the Australian Kookaburra bullion series. A circular privy mark appears in the field, depicting the overlapping obverse and reverse designs of a Hungarian Ferdinand I Silver Denar struck between 1531 and 1564 AD: the obverse of the denar shows the Hungarian royal shield with alternating stripes, a patriarchal cross, Dalmatian leopard heads, and a Bohemian lion, while the reverse depicts the Patrona Hungariae, the Virgin Mary as Madonna with the Holy Child. These so-called Madonnenmünzen were among the earliest Renaissance coinage types circulated in Hungary. The surrounding legend includes the coin's title, weight, fineness, privy mark inscription, and date. |

The "Ferdinand Silver Denar" subtitle on this piece refers to its connection to the Perth Mint's broader program of issuing kilo and oversized silver coins bearing historical currency designs as privy marks or secondary design elements — a commercial strategy the Mint leaned into heavily around the turn of the millennium to attract European collectors. The Ferdinand denar in question draws on medieval Hungarian coinage, tying an Australian legal-tender bullion piece to a currency tradition roughly five centuries removed from it.
Two-dollar face value on 62 grams of fine silver was purely nominal by 2000.
