Comments

Ze względu na problemy przemysłowe w Królewskiej Mennicy Australijskiej wpływające na produkcję monet, RAM ogłosiła, że aby uczcić królewskie małżeństwo Karola i Diany, Królewska Mennica w Walii miała wybić okolicznościową monetę 50c do obiegu w Australii. Moneta nie została uwzględniona w zestawach BU i Proof z 1981 roku.

W 1989 roku Mennica Królewska wyemitowała oszałamiające ponowne wybicie monety w "Masterpieces in Silver Set" na ten rok. Na awersie znajdował się jednak trzeci portret królowej Elżbiety II autorstwa Raphaela Davida Makloufa.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Due to industrial issues at the Royal Australian Mint affecting production of coins the RAM announced that to celebrate the royal marriage of Charles and Diana the Royal Mint in Wales was to strike a commemorative 50c coin to circulate in Australia. The coin was not included in the 1981 BU or Proof Sets.

In 1989 The RAM issued a stunning re-strike of the coin in the "Masterpieces in Silver Set" for that year. However it had the Raphael David Maklouf 3rd Portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the Obverse.
