Ten typ jest jedną z australijskich monet proklamacyjnych z 1800 roku. W 1800 roku ówczesny gubernator Nowej Południowej Walii Philip Gidley King wydał proklamację, zgodnie z którą dziesięć określonych monet brytyjskich, holenderskich, indyjskich, portugalskich i hiszpańskich miało zostać sprowadzonych do kolonii i otrzymać zawyżone nominały niż te wskazane na monetach, aby znalazły się w obiegu w kolonii. Rupia ta miała wartość 2 szylingów i 6 pensów.
