Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it commemorates the 150th anniversary of the Burke and Wills Expedition, which was a historic expedition that took place in Australia in 1860-1861. The expedition was led by Robert O'Hara Burke and William John Wills, who attempted to cross Australia from Melbourne to the Gulf of Carpentaria. Although the expedition ended in tragedy, with both Burke and Wills dying on the journey, it played a significant role in the exploration and mapping of Australia's interior. The coin's design features an image of Elizabeth II, as well as a depiction of Burke and Wills on their expedition.
