1996 10 oz Australian Kookaburra Silver Coin

The one-troy ounce is the standard size for collectible coins. The most popular silver coin collections premiere with a 1 oz coin but widen their possibilities with other size options.

The famous Australian Kookaburra Series from the Perth Mint produces 1 oz, 2 oz, 10 oz, and 1-kilo silver coins.

For those who want to vary their collections and investment portfolios, 10 oz may fit perfectly. 

It is unusual enough to bring uniqueness to collections, but it still provides easy storage and transportation to be purchased as an investment option.

Besides, it tends to have low premiums; therefore, it may become a more affordable way to acquire more silver bullion per dollar invested compared to several purchases of smaller coins.
