1 Dollar In the name of Elizabeth II, 6th Portrait - NRL, Cronulla Sutherland Sharks

The NRL centenary licensing agreements that brought club imagery onto circulating Australian coinage represent one of the more commercially aggressive moves in the Mint's recent history — a series that eventually covered all sixteen teams. The Sharks, founded in 1967 as the first expansion club in the NSWRFL competition, waited decades for their sole premiership, finally won in 2016 after a salary cap scandal had stripped an earlier title.

Elizabeth II's sixth portrait, sculpted by Jody Clark, appeared on Australian coinage only in the final years of her reign.
