This 100,000 limited edition medallion
has been struck to commemorate the Centenary of Federation in 2001. It has been designed
and produced by Canberra resident Ross Smith, OAM, and is his tribute in the recognition
of the birth of our nationhood, now a century old, and the evidence of special quality
that has set us apart and defined us as Australians.
Each of the medallions is mounted on a individually numbered and signed card that can be
folded to create a display or alternatively folded to send in the mail.
A synopsis of the design of the medallion is printed on the card and is reproduced below.
" This Centenary of Federation medallion is an everlasting memento to be worn with
pride of being an Australian. It reflects upon our foundation as a nation from its
colonial past into the new millennium. A symbolic token of an eight pointed ANZAC star
depicting the birth of each State and Territory; the Southern Cross shows us the way and a
laurel of eucalyptus surrounds our commitment as a one nation for future generations to
pursue. The outer rim represents our early coinage currency of the penny, also famous for
its use in Australia's traditional game of 'two up' from Gallipoli to East Timor. The
green and gold ribbon is but our legacy of all whom have struggled to achieve and inherit
with distinction and pride that. we are Australian."
