| Aanvullende informatie |
The Australian Light Horse commemorative dollar series has produced numerous issues, but this 2017 entry ties to one of the more tactically significant episodes in Australian military history — the charge at Beersheba in October 1917, whose centenary fell that year. The 4th Light Horse Brigade's mounted assault on Ottoman-held Beersheba is considered the last successful cavalry charge in history, and the centenary prompted a wave of Australian commemorative releases across multiple denominations and issuers.
The Royal Australian Mint struck this in aluminium bronze, the same alloy used in circulating dollar coinage since 1984, meaning collector and circulation strikes share a base composition — a distinction worth confirming before attributing circulation wear.
