The $1 coin design captures the rugged essence of the Australian Rangelands, with elements drawn from the IYRP logo. The focus is a horse and rider with a dog, representative of the enduring spirit of pastoral work. The sheep and cow represent Australia’s agricultural foundations. In the background we see a gnarled gum tree, the outline of mountains and soaring wedge-tailed eagle, demonstrating the vastness of the rangelands. The coin is framed with the text ‘Rangelands and Pastoralists’.
