2004 $5 Adelaide To Darwin Railway 1oz Silver Proof Coin

The Adelaide to Darwin Railway, also known as the Ghan, is a major rail link connecting Adelaide in South Australia to Darwin in the Northern Territory. The railway was completed in stages, with the line reaching Alice Springs in 1929 and the final link to Darwin opening in 2004. The railway is named after the Afghan camel drivers who played a crucial role in early exploration and transport across the Outback. The Adelaide to Darwin Railway facilitates passenger and freight services, playing a vital role in connecting Australia’s central and northern regions.

Note: the outside of the inner box is tarnished as is common with these older RAM issues. The coin inside is unaffected.
