Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique "Holey Dollar and Dump" design, which is a nod to the history of Australian currency. The Holey Dollar was a Spanish dollar that was used in Australia in the early 19th century, and the Dump was a token that was issued by a British bank in the 1820s to address a coin shortage. The combination of these two elements on the coin's design serves as a reminder of the rich history of currency in Australia.
