| Additional information |
Australia's 1-cent coin was withdrawn from circulation in 1992, making any cent struck after that date a deliberate numismatic production rather than currency. This 2009 piece is part of the Royal Australian Mint's retrospective decimal pattern series, recreating the original 1966 coinage in silver — the base metal cent recast as a precious metal collectible, decades after the denomination ceased to function.
Stuart Devlin designed the original 1966 reverse, launching his career; he later became goldsmith and jeweller to the Queen.
