$1 2012 Year of the Farmer Al/Bronze UNC
This coin was issued to mark the Year of the Farmer, acknowledging the efforts of farming communities and the 136,000 farms across the vast brown land of Australia, as well as the rural industries and agribusinesses that they support. We have farmers to thank for our food and natural fibres. Though they are often faced with challenges never experienced, nor fully understood, by their urban-dwelling cousins, Australian farmers continue to supply with some of the best produce in the world.
The reverse design illustrates the biodiversity of Australia's farming communities in the fields of both agriculture and animal husbandry. It showcases farming across the broad spectrum of agribusiness from fruit orchards to fields of wheat, sheep and cattle farming, all dependent on the strategic and talented use of water, the scarcest of all resources. The coin is housed sealed on a colourful see-both-sides cardboard pack. Mint records indicate that 20,000 specimen uncirculated coins were issued.
