One Dollar 2024 AFL - Western Bulldogs, Coin from Australia - detailed information
| ||||||
The one dollar coin denomination (written as $1) was introduced in Australia in 1984, replacing the earlier banknotes. The original definitive type featuring five kangaroos has not been changed since its introduction and is still issued regularly. Apart from the regular design, the Royal Australian Mint issues a large variety of circulating commemorative one dollar coins which have the same specifications and circulate in parallel with the definitive type - such as this one. This circulating commemorative one-dollar coin is part of the AFL Collectable Coins Series - Season 2 collection issued by the Royal Australian Mint in partnership with Australia Post. The series features twenty coins - one for the Australian Football League (AFL), one for AFL Women's (AFLW), and eighteen coins each featuring a member club of the AFL. This coin features the Western Bulldogs football club. The Australian Football League (AFL) is the pre-eminent and only fully professional competition of Australian rules football. It was originally named the Victorian Football League (VFL) and was founded in 1896 as a breakaway competition from the Victorian Football Association (VFA), with its inaugural season in 1897. It changed its name to Australian Football League in 1990 after expanding its competition to other Australian states in the 1980s. The Western Bulldogs was founded in 1877 as the Footscray Football Club, based in West Footscray in the old City of Footscray west of Melbourne. The club won nine premierships in the Victorian Football Association (VFA) before gaining admission to the Victorian Football League (which became the AFL in 1990) in 1925. $1 coins issued in 2024 have now been in circulation for less than one year. | ||||||
