| Beschrijving keerzijde | A detailed depiction of the Macquarie Lighthouse situated on a rocky headland occupies the lower half of the field, showing the cylindrical stone tower rising above its associated keeper's buildings with domed turrets. Emanating from the lantern room, stylised concentric arc lines radiate outward across the upper field to represent the lighthouse's beams of light. Superimposed over the central design is a large numeral '200' incorporating the lighthouse tower as the central zero, commemorating the bicentenary of the structure. The legend MACQUARIE LIGHTHOUSE arcs along the upper periphery, BICENTENARY appears along the lower periphery, and the Perth Mint mintmark 'P' is positioned to the lower right of the lighthouse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Macquarie Lighthouse at South Head, Sydney, was designed by Francis Greenway — a convicted forger transported to Australia in 1814, who became the colony's de facto government architect under Lachlan Macquarie. The original 1818 structure developed critical faults and was replaced on the same site in 1883, but Greenway's foundational role in Australian civic architecture gave the subject an obvious appeal for commemorative coinage.
This dollar is part of the RAM's broader Landmark series. Aluminium bronze strikes from this mint in this period are known to exhibit minor die fatigue on high-volume commemorative runs.
