| Additional information |
Hutt River Province — formally the Principality of Hutt River — was a self-declared micronation in Western Australia, established in 1970 by Leonard Casley after a dispute with the state government over wheat production quotas. Casley styled himself Prince Leonard I. The "Judge Landis" designation on this piece almost certainly references Kenesaw Mountain Landis, the American jurist and first Commissioner of Major League Baseball, though why a Western Australian micronation was issuing coins in his name in 1993 is not documented in any source this cataloger has been able to verify with confidence.
