Comment
This NCLT Aluminium-bronze $1 coin was released by the RAM in two different Two Coin Sets, (UNC & Proof).The coins were commemorating many years of Wheat production & exporting from Australia to the rest of the world.
The other coin in the set was a Copper-nickel NCLT 20 Cent coin (KM# 1625)
This was the Uncirculated Set.
