Historical Context: Issued in 2019, this Australian one-dollar coin features the fourth effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. It forms part of 'The Great Aussie Coin Hunt,' a highly successful Royal Australian Mint initiative. This series released 26 unique alphabet-themed coins into circulation, promoting numismatic collecting. The 'Letter O' coin specifically highlights 'Outback,' a quintessential Australian concept, making it a culturally resonant commemorative issue.
Artistry: The obverse bears Ian Rank-Broadley's widely recognized fourth portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, depicting a mature sovereign wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. The reverse design, a collaborative effort by the Royal Australian Mint, integrates the bold letter 'O' with evocative imagery of the Australian Outback. This stylistic approach, blending modern typography with illustrative elements, was characteristic of the series, ensuring broad appeal. The design effectively captures the vastness and unique character of Australia’s interior.
Technical/Grading: Struck in aluminium bronze, weighing 9 grams and measuring 25 millimeters, this coin generally exhibits excellent strike characteristics. High-points for evaluation include the intricate details of the Queen's tiara and hair on the obverse, and the fine lines and textures within the Outback landscape on the reverse. Collectors should observe the sharpness of the letter 'O' and the definition of background elements, as these areas are susceptible to wear. A strong strike shows full separation of design elements and crisp lettering.
