Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Dollar - Elizabeth II (4th Portrait - Dolphin Dreaming) 2009 coin from Australia is that it features a unique design that showcases the artwork of Indigenous Australian artist, Cathy Marks. The coin's reverse side features a pad-printed design depicting a dolphin and a dreaming scene, which represents the artist's interpretation of the spiritual connection between the sea and the land. This design is a departure from the traditional depiction of Elizabeth II on Australian coins, and it highlights the country's rich cultural heritage and diversity.
