Where it came from
The 2001 Northern Territory 20-cent coin was issued by the Royal Australian Mint as part of a commemorative series celebrating the Centenary of Federation. This collection featured individual designs for each Australian state and territory, highlighting their unique symbols and historical contributions to the nation’s formation. The coins served as a circulating memento of the 100th anniversary of the constitutional union of the six colonies.
The reverse design was selected through a collaborative process involving local input to ensure the Northern Territory was represented by its iconic flora and fauna. The imagery, which includes the Sturt's Desert Rose and the wedge-tailed eagle, was crafted to capture the spirit of the Top End. Ian Rank-Broadley’s fourth effigy of Queen Elizabeth II appears on the obverse, consistent with standard Australian coinage of the period.
