One of six designs released in 2001 to mark the centenary of Australian federation, this piece represents Tasmania's contribution to the commemorative series. Each state was allocated its own reverse, a politically careful decision given federation itself had been a fraught negotiation — Tasmania, as Van Diemen's Land, had been among the more reluctant colonies, its small population giving it outsized anxiety about being outvoted in a federal parliament dominated by the mainland. The enabling legislation passed the Australian colonies between 1899 and 1900 before receiving royal assent on 9 July 1900.
The dodecagonal cupro-nickel format dates to 1969, when Australia replaced its pre-decimal fifty-cent silver coin after just one year of circulation — the 80% silver piece had been immediately hoarded.
