| Additional information |
Part of the Royal Australian Mint's broader AFL 150th anniversary program marking a century and a half of Australian rules football, this colored proof was issued the same year the AFL celebrated its sesquicentennial alongside the wider commemoration of the game's Victorian origins in 1858. The pad-printing technique used for the color application — rather than enameling — was a production choice that kept unit costs manageable across a large commemorative series, though it raises legitimate long-term durability questions that traditional enamel does not.
