One of the greatest feats of endurance, determination and heroism in our nation's history, the First Car Crossing of Australia from West to East took place in 1912, when Sidney Ferguson and Francis Birtles drove their tiny single-cylinder 10hp 'Brush' Runabout motor car from Perth to Sydney. Suffering many hardships and severe weather as they travelled across Australia's unforgiving Outback, these brave trailblazers covered an astonishing 4,100km in a mere 28 days, becoming the very first to traverse the continent from west to east by car.

Enshrining the pioneering spirit of these intrepid explorers in official legal tender, the 2012 $1 First Car Across Australia Silver Proof forms a dramatic tribute to the centenary of this major landmark in Australian history.

Graced with an historically accurate design of the 1910 Brush Runabout used in the 4,100km expedition, and capturing in full-colour the harsh Aussie Outback negotiated by Ferguson and Birtles, this eye-catching 25g sterling silver commemorative coin is surprisingly exclusive.

With a mere 2,500 coins issued worldwide, and considering the strength of the automobile memorabilia market, you will have to put your foot to the floor to guarantee supply of the 2012 $1 First Car Across Australia Silver Proof!

• Struck to flawless Proof quality from 25g of sterling silver
• Beautifully presented within the plush confines of a stylish case
• Accompanied by an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity
• Issued as official Niue legal tender of $1 – spans 40mm in diameter
