Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 15 Dollars - Elizabeth II (4th Portrait - Australian Nugget Gold) 1998-1999 coin from Australia is that it has a unique design feature. The coin's reverse side features a gold nugget, which is depicted in a way that gives the impression that it is "emerging" from the coin's surface. This effect was achieved through the use of a special minting technique, where the gold nugget was struck multiple times to create a raised, textured surface that appears lifelike. This feature adds an extra layer of depth and visual interest to the coin, making it stand out from other coins in the series.
