Where it came from
The 1991 Australian 1 Cent coin, featuring the Raphael Maklouf portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, was issued as part of the Royal Australian Mint's prestigious Masterpieces in Silver series. This specific collection was curated to honor the history of Australian coinage, often focusing on themes of design evolution and national milestones. The choice of the third effigy by Maklouf, which was used on Australian legal tender from 1985 to 1998, represents a transition toward a more refined and regal depiction of the monarch, characterized by the inclusion of the George IV State Diadem.
The 'Feather Glider' designation within the series reflects the artistic thematic focus of this particular year, celebrating Australia's natural heritage and innovative spirit. The coin was struck to a high-quality proof standard, intended for collectors who valued the aesthetic craftsmanship of decimal coinage. Upon release, the set was well-received by numismatists for its limited availability and the technical precision of the minting process, solidifying its place as a staple of contemporary Australian collector sets.
