W 1996 roku RAM wypuściła do obiegu monetę o nominale 1 dolara, która upamiętniała 100. rocznicę śmierci Sir Henry'ego Parkesa. Znany jako "ojciec federacji", nie popierał tej koncepcji aż do ostatnich kilku lat swojego życia politycznego. Powszechnie uważa się, że jego poparcie wynikało z wygody, ale mimo to znany jest z mocnego przemówienia w Tenterfield, w którym wzywał do federacji kolonii Australii. Powody, dla których to zrobił, były w najlepszym razie mieszane, a on sam powiedział, że federacja byłaby świetnym pomysłem, aby sprawcy kłopotów w Broken Hill stali się problemem Australii Południowej, a nie NSW!



Jest to edycja Silver Proof monety NCLT, która została wydana przez RAM w kapsule w pluszowym etui z jedynie przerywanym rantem. Nie wydano wersji z frezowanymi krawędziami, jak w przypadku wcześniejszych edycji srebrnej monety o nominale 25 mm dolara australijskiego.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

In 1996 the RAM released a $1 coin into circulation that commemorated the 100th anniversary of the death of Sir Henry Parkes. Known as the "Father of Federation" he did not support the concept strongly until the last few years of his political life. The general consensus of his support is that it was one of convenience, but despite this he is known for a strong speech at Tenterfield urging Federation of the colonies of Australia. His reasons for doing so were mixed at best, and he is recorded as saying that federation would be a great idea so that trouble makers in Broken Hill would become South Australia's problem and not those of NSW!



This is the Silver Proof edition of the NCLT coin that was released by the RAM in a capsule in a plush case with only interrupted reeding. No milled edge version was released as per earlier editions of Silver 25mm Australian Dollar coin.
