Inspirational Australian $1 Coin Series - 2009 Steve Irwin
Larrikin Aussie Steve Irwin, aka the Crocodile Hunter, left an indelible imprint on everyone he came in contact with. Passionate about the conservation of Australian wildlife, he taught us all to think about animals in a new and exciting way.
Steve Irwin Reverse
This 2009 $1 coin celebrates Steve Irwin’s charismatic personality and unique achievements with a reverse design depicting him in his element – surrounded by native flora and fauna. The design includes the inscription INSPIRATIONAL AUSTRALIANS: CONSERVATION and the years of Steve’s life 1962 - 2006.
Fine Design Detail
The uncirculated coin is issued by the Royal Australian Mint, which says its glass beading technique makes the design’s fine detail – from Steve’s cheeky grin to some of his favourite wildlife - really stand out.
Australian Legal Tender
Issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965, the coin portrays the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the 2009 year-date on the obverse.
Presentation Card
The coin is available exclusively on a coloured presentation card which shapes as the Australian continent’s familiar ‘Top End’. The card pictures Steve dressed in his trademark safari suite, affectionately holding a baby crocodile.
