| Additional information |
Hutt River Province — formally the Province of Hutt River — was a self-declared micronation in Western Australia, established in 1970 when wheat farmer Leonard Casley seceded from Australia in a dispute over wheat production quotas. By the 1990s, Casley had styled himself Prince Leonard I and was issuing a full range of coins through arrangements with private mints, primarily as collector and novelty items rather than circulating currency. The "Albert Spalding" designation on this piece almost certainly references a commemorative or patronage issue rather than a second claimant to any title.
The Krause X# prefix confirms non-circulating status in the standard reference framework.
