| Aanvullende informatie |
The Sydney Mint struck this five-pound piece as part of a coronation year issue following Edward VII's accession after the death of Victoria in January 1901 — a reign that had lasted 63 years and spanned the entire existence of the Australian colonial mints. Edward's coronation was itself delayed from June to August 1902 due to an emergency appendectomy, meaning most coronation coinage was already in production before the ceremony actually took place.
The Sydney five-pound remained a low-mintage prestige denomination throughout its production history, struck more for presentation and export than everyday commerce. Circulated survivors are genuinely rare.
