In 2001 to celebrate the new Millennium, the Royal Australian Mint released a very Limited Issue Future $10 Ten Dollar Silver Proof Coin struck in solid .999 Silver plated with 24 Carat Gold and Certified Slabbed and Graded by PCGS as PR69 DCAM.
As Australia enters the twenty-first century, it can reflect on its rich cultural heritage, a heritage that stretches back to the last Ice Age and to the ancestors of its original inhabitants, the Australian Aborigines.
It is the very essence of their ancient lore and the abundant topographical wealth of this vast island nation's natural and contrasting treasures that have prompted the Royal Australian Mint to issue special coins in celebration of the advent of the third Millennium, coins that represent The Past, The Present and The Future.
The coin features The Future and is a testament of Australia in the future - a nation preserving its ancient values as well as embracing a multicultural society. These legal tender coins have been struck to proof quality using specially prepared dies and highly polished blanks.
