History and Significance
Whether it is to make a wish, navigate the seas, study science or engage with mythology, the northern hemisphere’s stars capture the imagination of many. Their extraordinary legacy has been captured in art works, song lyrics and popular sayings. From Homer’s Odysseus having a journey guided by the celestial bodies above to Disney’s Pinocchio being told, “When you wish upon a star, your dreams come true”, the night sky has a lasting legacy in our hearts, minds and culture.
Gold has been revered through time, often evoked as a point of reference when discussing value, quality, class or desirability. Since 1965, the Royal Australian Mint has been known throughout Australia and the world for its technological innovation, creativity and enviable craftsmanship in creating minted treasures. In combining these three entities, the resulting creation is destined to be a highly desired by coin collectors and those interested in the night sky.
