Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases John McDouall Stuart, a prominent Australian explorer, on the reverse side. This design was created by artist and sculptor, Andor Mészáros, and it depicts Stuart standing on a hill, looking out towards the horizon with a surveying instrument in hand. The design is surrounded by a ring of eucalyptus leaves, which adds a touch of Australian culture and history to the coin. This coin is a part of the "Masterpieces in Silver" series, which features notable Australians who have made significant contributions to the country's history and culture.
