Where it came from
This 20-cent coin was issued by the Royal Australian Mint in 2001 as part of a commemorative series celebrating the centenary of Australia's federation. The collection included unique 20-cent pieces for each state and territory, designed to reflect the distinct heritage and iconography of the individual regions during the first century of the unified nation.
The Australian Capital Territory design was conceptualized by Wojciech Pietranik, a renowned sculptor and medalist who also designed the Sydney 2000 Olympic medals. His design for this coin features a stylized representation of the Australian Capital Territory's coat of arms, emphasizing the region's role as the seat of government. The obverse bears the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, which was the standard portrait used on Australian coinage at the turn of the millennium.
