The Royal Australian Mint released this aluminium-bronze, pad printed coloured NCLT Proof coin in the 2002 Year Proof Set and Koala Baby Proof Set. This coin was only available in those two sets.
The 2002 year was designated as the "Year of the Outback" which celebrated that part of Australia that is so internationally famous (but actually lived in by very few Australians). There were more than 7000 celebratory activities held Australia wide during the year.
Non coloured versions were also released by the RAM in the following ways:-
As the only $1 coin issued in 2002 in Australia into general circulation
With (B), (M) & (S) Counterstamps at the relevant ANDA Shows in coincards during the year.
With "C" Mintmark available from the Public Gallery Press at the RAM for a fee of $2.
In the BU Year Mint Set included as a non-mintmarked coin.
In the Koala Baby BU Year Set included as non-mintmarked coin.
In the Wedding BU Year Set included as a non-mintmarked Specimen coin.
In addition a Fine Silver (.999) NCLT Proof version was released in a capsule in a plush square box.
