Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it commemorates the 200th anniversary of the Rum Rebellion, a historic event in Australian history that took place in 1808. The Rum Rebellion was a rebellion by the New South Wales Corps against the Governor of New South Wales, William Bligh, and was sparked by conflicts over the distribution of rum and other goods. The coin's design features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and an image of the Rum Rebellion on the other, making it a unique and collectible piece for history enthusiasts and numismatists.
