Own a Unique Piece of Olympic History: OLYMPHILEX 2000 Commemorative $1 Coins

In 2000, a special numismatic and philatelic fair, OLYMPHILEX, was held in Sydney and Canberra to celebrate the Olympic Games. The Royal Australian Mint brought its portable press, creating unique $1 coins on demand for visitors.

Rare and Unusual Design

These OLYMPHILEX coins stand out with smooth edges and special lettering. You'll see either "Sydney" or "Canberra" inscribed, marking where the coin was minted. This is the ONLY Australian $1 coin to feature this unique design.
