The continent of Australia shines on this coin in opal, the county’s national gemstone. In ancient Aboriginal Dreamtime lore, this gemstone was said to have been created when a rainbow met the earth. Today Australia is a world leader in opal production! While the history of Indigenous Australians can be dated back about 70,000 years, Europeans did not fully discover the continent much later. In 1803 Matthew Flinders, a Royal Navy cartographer successfully navigated around the entire continent. One of the first things the Europeans noted was Australia’s thriving and diverse wildlife.

The obverse showcases the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty faces right and is surrounded by a ray pattern and inscriptions.

Designed by Aleysha Howarth, the obverse features the continent of Australia in opal, surrounded by ten of Australia’s most famous animals including a koala, Tasmanian devil, emu, wombat, kangaroo, bilby, monitor lizard, echidna, snake, and frilled-neck lizard. Inscriptions included are the weight, purity, and year of issue.
