Public Lecture: Wattle in Coin Design
The Mint explores the use of Golden Wattle, the National Floral Emblem, in its coin design.
Australia has thousands of plant species with unique and stunning flowers. One in particular has found its way into the designs of a number of significant coins and medallions, through Stuart Devlin’s designs for the medals of the Australian Honours System. Dr Suzette Searle, President of the Wattle Day Association, will present a brief history of wattle on coins, and chat afterwards in the Royal Australian Mint’s new exhibition REFLECTION: 50 Years of the Australian Honours System.
