2024 Swan Pattern Dollar Silver UNC
Celebrating the 60th anniversary in July 2024 (1964-2024), The Australian Coin Review (ACR) has long been a cornerstone in the numismatic community, providing enthusiasts and collectors with a wealth of information on coinage, banknotes, and related collectibles. Founded in 1964 by John Gartner, the publication quickly established itself as an authoritative source, educating novice and experienced collectors, offering detailed articles on new releases, historical insights, and market trends.
A particularly noteworthy time in ACR's history is the story of the 1967 Swan Dollar. This piece was not a legal tender coin but rather the winning design from a crown design competition organized by ACR.
The winning design was created by Andor Meszaros, an acclaimed sculptor and medallist. Interestingly, Meszaros' design for the Swan Dollar was originally an unsuccessful submission in the competition for Australia's new decimal currency. However, its aesthetic merit did not go unrecognized, and it found a new life and acclaim through the ACR competition.
In 1967, the re-worked variation of the design depicting a 100 cent (dollar) was struck by John Pinches of London in three versions - 1500 in uncirculated quality silver with a milled edge, 750 in proof silver form with a plain edge and a further 10 in proof gold form with a plain edge.
Struck by The Royal Australian Mint featuring a beautifully rendered swan, the design symbolises grace and natural beauty. The 2024 fantasy, release Swan "Dollar" commemorative crown, pays homage to this iconic design and highlights ACR's ongoing influence in celebrating numismatic artistry.
