Comment
200 coins are part of a Five-coin setInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 2005 Australian Platinum Koala 50 Dollar coin is that it features a unique pad-printed design, which gives the coin a distinctive look and sets it apart from other coins in the series. The pad-printing process involves applying a thin layer of ink to the coin's surface, creating a detailed and intricate design that is both visually striking and highly detailed. This process allows for a level of detail and precision that is not possible with traditional coin engraving techniques, making the coin a truly unique and collectible piece.
