Australia Elizabeth II 1985-98 Raphael Maklouf Portrait Uncirculated 8-Coin Set

Australia Elizabeth II 1985-98 Raphael Maklouf Portrait Uncirculated 8-Coin Set

Underpinned by premium quality, fantastic value-for-money and all-new presentation packaging, we are delighted to present the Elizabeth II 1985-98 Raphael Maklouf Portrait Uncirculated 8-Coin Set!

A distinguished, much admired effigy, the second Australian decimal portrait of Queen Elizabeth II was created by Raphael Maklouf. A noted sculptor, Maklouf stated that his intention had been “to create a symbol, regal and ageless”, and the noted designer achieved that ambition with aplomb. A superb work, Maklouf’s portrait shows the Queen wearing a necklace, earrings and the royal diadem, which she usually wears on her way to and from the State Opening of Parliament.

Holding a very special place in Australian decimal currency history, the Maklouf Portrait is the only obverse portrayal of the Queen to appear on all eight circulating Australian decimal denominations! A fine snapshot of the relatively short-lived Maklouf Portrait, which was used only from 1985 until 1998, this set includes all denominations in strictly Uncirculated condition.

An impressive presentation, with each set housed within an all-new, illustrated, informative pack, the Elizabeth II 1985-98 Raphael Maklouf Portrait Uncirculated 8-Coin Set is within the reach of all at this price. Click add to cart now!
