| Beschrijving keerzijde | A naturalistically rendered kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae) is depicted in three-quarter view, perched upon a large partially submerged log set within a tranquil river landscape. Aquatic vegetation, native trees, and a distant shoreline are visible in the mid-ground, imparting a sense of depth to the composition. The engraver's initials 'AH' appear at lower centre, with the Perth Mint 'P' mintmark to the right. The series title 'DISCOVER AUSTRALIA' arcs along the upper legend, while the lower legend reads '2012 KOOKABURRA 1/2oz 9999 GOLD'. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Discover Australia series was launched by the Perth Mint in 2006 as an ongoing bullion and proof program built around native fauna, with the kookaburra appearing across multiple denominations and formats throughout the run. The .9999 fineness — rather than the more common .999 — became a deliberate marketing distinction for Perth's proof gold issues during this period, requiring tighter refining tolerances that the mint had invested heavily in achieving.
KM#1717 sits in a crowded field of Perth kookaburra issues, and catalog cross-referencing with the contemporaneous Kookaburra silver bullion series can cause confusion among newer collectors — these are entirely separate programs with different legislative backing.
