The one dollar coin was first minted in 1984 when the one dollar note was withdrawn from circulation. Since then, the one dollar coin has become a popular issue for numismatists.
First featured on the British coinage of King Edward III, the privy marks were used as a secret mark to identify the period in which the coin was struck.
In 1991, the Royal Australian Mint explored and modified this concept, allowing visitors to the Mint to strike their own ‘C’ for Canberra coin on the gallery press. Then in 1993, to share this experience with customers Australia-wide, the Mint took the mobile coin press to shows and fairs, striking the one dollar coin with a privy mark to signify the location of the event as a souvenir.
To this day, the Australian one dollar coin continues to be a world-renowned design from the Royal Australian Mint. It is fitting that this year this iconic design will be presented with a special ‘P’ privy mark in recognition of the celebrated Perth ANDA Show.
