This Australian legal tender fine silver $1 proof coin acknowledges with pride the Centenary of Australian coinage. Following Federation and the establishment of our first constitution, the Commonwealth Government set about creating a unified national currency to replace the system inherited from England and in 1910 the first Australian silver coins were issued. Signifying Australia becoming an individual nation, the threepences, sixpences, shillings, and florins helped our nation to emerge from dependence on the British.
