Description
The introduction of the half ounce "Square Kookaburra" Silver proof coin in 2002 was Australia's first legal tender square coin
Adding to this coin's unusual appeal is the stunning use of lenticular packaging. The 1/2oz Square Kookaburra is available individually in the new lenticular packaging
The 1/2oz Square Kookaburra carries the new 2002 series reverse design depicting a Kookaburra perched on a tree branch.
The History of the Square Kookaburra goes back to 1919-21 when a number of coins were struck to replace the bulky bronze pennies and halfpennies, each with a kookaburra reverse. However, none were officially circulated.
