Nothing conjures the experience of an agricultural show like the sights and sounds of the ring and sideshow alley, the frantic thud of the woodchopping competition and the prized livestock and produce arrayed in the pavilions. Marking the bicentenary of the foundation of Australia’s eight state and territory Royal Agricultural Societies and the first agricultural show in 1822, the Royal Australian Mint has released two commemorative coins to celebrate their contributions to Australian society over the past 200 years – 2022 $1 Uncirculated Coin and a 2022 $5 Fine Silver Proof Coin.
Purchase these coins today from the Royal Australian Mint and collect a little history.
