| 裏面の説明 | Facing bust portrait of Edward James 'Ed' Delahanty, the celebrated late 19th-century American baseball player, depicted in civilian dress with a cravat, occupying the central field. The name ED DELAHANTY arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination FIVE DOLLARS curves along the lower rim. To the left of the portrait, the motto IN GOD WE TRUST appears in three lines above the date 1993, and the numeral 5 with a small mint mark symbol is positioned to the right of the bust. |

Hutt River Province declared independence from Western Australia in 1970 after a dispute over wheat quotas, and its founder Leonard Casley — who styled himself Prince Leonard I — spent decades issuing coins, stamps, and currency as instruments of administrative legitimacy for his micronation. This piece honors Ed Delahanty, the 19th-century American baseball star who died in 1903 after falling — or being pushed — from a railway bridge over Niagara Falls under circumstances never fully resolved.
The pairing of an Australian micronation with a deceased American ballplayer is less strange than it sounds: Hutt River issued hundreds of such collector-targeted commemoratives throughout the 1980s and 1990s, many with no discernible thematic connection to the province itself.
