Coin Study


        The first thing i noticed when i picked up the coin was that many of them had Queen Elizabeth the 2nd on them. It told me that they really signified their queen. Then i found out it was Australian as it says on the coin. However, i did not need to read that to know. A few of the other coins had imprints of national animals in Australia signifying their wildlife. I inspected beautiful imprints with kangaroos, platypuses, and ostriches. There was also a sign that they valued their heritage and culture as an aboriginal man was on the coin. The last thing i noticed was that they showed the countries seal as well as an outline of its country with a star. Inspecting coins tell us a lot about the country as it portrays it in a unique way.
