A historic, important type, the 1953-64 Penny was the first Australian penny issue of Queen Elizabeth II. Depicting the Bounding Roo on the reverse, this coin is graced with the very first coinage portrait of the Queen to be used on Australian currency - a portrait created by noted British artist Mary Gillick.

Note: These coins have been gilded (gold plated) and the years will vary from 1953 to 1964.
