Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse depicts a uniformed bust of Governor Lachlan Macquarie facing three-quarters right, occupying the left portion of the field. To his right, two historically faithful representations of Australia's earliest currency are shown: the smaller Dump coin above, bearing a crown and the legend NEW SOUTH WALES 1813, and the larger Holey Dollar below, a centre-pierced ring coin with the legend VTRAQUE VNUM and NEW SOUTH WALES 1813 around a central void, with the date 1797 and the mintmark M visible in the lower field. The curved top legend reads LACHLAN MACQUARIE - HOLEY DOLLAR. The entire composition commemorates the historic 1813 currency reform initiated by Governor Macquarie in New South Wales.

Aanvullende informatie

Lachlan Macquarie served as Governor of New South Wales from 1810 to 1821 and is directly responsible for the first currency manufactured in Australia — he authorized the holing of Spanish dollars to create the "holey dollar" and the central plug known as the "dump" in 1813, a practical solution to a chronic coin shortage in the colony. That monetary episode made him a recurring subject for Pacific and Australian commemorative issues.
