Containing one-tenth troy ounce of platinum, this fractional denomination provides a convenient and accessible way to own physical platinum while benefiting from the craftsmanship and global reputation of Perth Mint bullion products.

About the 2026 1/10 oz Australian Platinum Kookaburra Coin

The Perth Mint is internationally respected for producing some of the world’s most recognizable bullion coin programs, including the Kangaroo, Koala, Lunar, and Kookaburra series. These coins are known for their detailed wildlife designs, exceptional minting quality, and strong global demand among investors and collectors.

Each 2026 1/10 oz Australian Platinum Kookaburra coin contains .9995 fine platinum and is issued as legal tender under Australian law. Fractional platinum coins such as the 1/10 oz size allow investors to accumulate platinum gradually while maintaining the prestige and authenticity of government-issued bullion.

Because of their smaller size, fractional platinum coins are often valued for their potential barterability and flexibility, providing investors with more options when buying, selling, or transferring precious metals holdings.

King Charles III Obverse Design

The obverse of the 2026 Platinum Kookaburra coin features the official effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, designed by Dan Thorne.

The portrait depicts the monarch in left-profile relief without a crown, consistent with modern Commonwealth coinage traditions. Surrounding inscriptions identify the monarch and the coin’s legal tender denomination.

This effigy represents the continued adoption of the new royal portrait across Australian coinage following the accession of King Charles III.

Iconic Kookaburra Reverse Design

The reverse of the 2026 Australian Platinum Kookaburra coin portrays a kookaburra in flight above a river landscape, framed by rugged rocks and surrounding trees. The design captures the powerful wingspan and graceful movement of the bird as it glides across the Australian wilderness.

The kookaburra is a member of the kingfisher family and is famous for its distinctive laughter-like call that echoes through the Australian bush at dawn. Because of this unique sound, the bird is often called the “bushman’s clock.”

Inscriptions on the reverse include:

• KOOKABURRA
• 2026
• 1/10 oz .9995 PLATINUM

The design also features The Perth Mint’s “P” mint mark, confirming the coin’s origin.
