| Aanvullende informatie |
Mary MacKillop was beatified by Pope John Paul II in Sydney in January 1995 — the first Australian to reach that stage of the canonisation process — and her eventual sainthood in 2010 made her Australia's first and only canonised saint. This 2008 issue preceded that canonisation by two years, part of the Royal Australian Mint's Inspirational Australians series released ahead of what was already widely anticipated as a historic religious milestone for the country.
MacKillop had briefly been excommunicated in 1871 by the Bishop of Adelaide, a dispute rooted in her reporting of clerical abuse — a detail that adds considerable historical weight to her eventual elevation.
