Interesting fact
The Hutt River 5 Dollars - Leonard I (Harry Wright) 1992 coin is a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not intended for general circulation and was instead produced for collectors. It's made of copper-nickel and weighs 25.1 grams. Despite its relatively small size, the coin has a unique feature - it has a square shape, which sets it apart from most other coins that are typically round in shape. This square shape was chosen to symbolize the square-shaped stamp that was used to mark the first letters sent from the Hutt River Province, which was established by Leonard I (Harry Wright) in 1970. The coin's design also features an image of Leonard I on one side and the Hutt River Province's coat of arms on the other.
