Celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Australian one-dollar coin with the 2004 Masterpieces in Silver collection. This exceptional six-coin proof fine silver (.999) set, produced by the Royal Australian Mint, is a tribute to a cornerstone of Australia's currency history.

The collection captures the past and present of the dollar coin, showcasing designs that played a role in its development. A highlight of this set is the inclusion of three coin designs never before seen by collectors or the public, including a wombat design by Stuart Devlin and an alternative five-kangaroo design.

Also featured is a very rare seven-sided experimental coin with the Imperial Lion design, a test piece previously rejected due to manufacturing difficulties. This marks a numismatic 'first' for the public. The set also includes the standard "Mob of Roos" design, struck for the first time as a 40mm fine silver coin.
