Comments

The Penny Privy and the Florin Privy are part of 1999 2oz  Kookaburra Proof Coin Glamour 4 Coins Privy Set and are proof coins. The Half Penny Privy and the Shilling Privy are Specimen coins and have a different reverse design ( two kookaburras on a branch (note: not back to back but looking in the same direction with a gap between them)).
The coins from the set were also available in individual packaging.
Proof coins without privy marks were available individually and in sets, eg. the 2 Oz Proof set contained a 2 ounce coin and a 1 ounce coin of the same design.
