|
The one dollar coin denomination (written as $1) was introduced in Australia in 1984, replacing the earlier banknotes. The original reverse design by Stuart Devlin featuring five kangaroos - known in Australia as the "Mob of Roos" design - has not been changed since its introduction.
Apart from this regular design, the Royal Australian Mint issues a large variety of circulating commemorative one dollar coins.
Coins issued in 2024 have now been in circulation for less than one year. |
