Aust. decimal currency cloth photos.


So here it is - a piece of Australian history.  I've shown this to friends who have no interest in embroidery, and even they have been impressed by the significance of it.  For instance, the one and two cent coins depicted are no longer in existence.  And the fifty cent coin has changed its face many times since this first one.
