The Winged Victory referenced here is the Nike of Samothrace, discovered on the Greek island of Samothrace in 1863 and now among the Louvre's most visited objects. Perth Mint's bullion and proof programs have long drawn on classical antiquity, and the Nike is a recurring subject — chosen partly for its universal iconographic weight but also because the headless, armless figure sidesteps the complications of depicting a specific face or political figure on a coin already carrying a royal portrait.
Charles III's first portrait, by sculptor Jody Clark, entered circulation on Australian coinage following the Queen's death in September 2022.
