| Additional information |
The NRL commemorative dollar series, of which this Penrith Panthers issue is part, reflects the Royal Australian Mint's long-running strategy of using the $1 coin as a collectible vehicle — a format that has expanded aggressively since the 1980s. The Panthers themselves are coming off back-to-back premierships in 2021 and 2022, which almost certainly accelerated demand for this particular club's release within the set.
