$50,000 Crown Competition
Back in 1966, we ran a competition that caught the eye of coin enthusiasts everywhere.
From that competition the iconic Swan Dollar was born, which today remains one of the most sought-after designs ever produced in Australian numismatics.
60 years later we’re running it back. This time, however, the stakes are much higher.
