1996 Australia Kookaburra 1 oz Silver $1 ANACS MS70 DCAM

1996 Australian Kookaburra 1 oz Silver Coin – ANACS MS70 DCAM

Add an early-date, perfect-grade Australian Kookaburra to your collection with this outstanding 1996 Perth Mint 1 oz silver coin, certified by ANACS as MS70 DCAM.

The 1996 issue features a dramatic one-year design depicting a kookaburra in full flight. Its deeply mirrored fields and strongly contrasting design earned the coin ANACS’s desirable Deep Cameo designation.

Key Date and Mintage

The Perth Mint produced only 170,105 standard one-ounce Kookaburra coins for 1996. That is substantially below the 500,000-coin maximum used for many later releases, adding to the appeal of this early series issue.
