Interesting fact

The 2013 Australian 50 cent coin featuring the 4th portrait of Elizabeth II with a Rainbow Lorikeet design has a unique feature - it has a pad-printed coloration technique that gives the bird's feathers a vibrant, lifelike appearance. This technique involves applying a thin layer of colored resin to the coin's surface, which is then polished to create a glossy finish. This process allows for intricate details and color variations that are not possible with traditional coinage techniques.
