Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1953-1954 Australian 6 Pence coin made of silver is that it was minted during a time when the country was still part of the British Empire, and the coin features an image of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and the Australian coat of arms on the other. This coin was also the first to feature the Queen's image on an Australian coin, making it a significant piece of numismatic history.
