| Additional information |
Issued to mark the 175th anniversary of Queen Victoria's accession in 1838, this coin sits in a lineage of Australian commemoratives that Perth Mint has used to reinforce the country's monarchical ties at a time when republican sentiment periodically resurfaces in domestic politics. Victoria's reign shaped the Australian colonies profoundly — she was on the throne when all six were granted responsible government, and her death in 1901 came just months after Federation.
The two-troy-ounce format in four-nines gold reflects Perth's house standard for flagship proof issues from this period.
