2013 $5 Silver Coin - 25th Anniversary of Australian Parliament House

Reverse

A representation of a part of the Australian Parliament House and adjoining garden. The design includes the inscriptions ‘25TH ANNIVERSARY OF’, ‘PARLIAMENT HOUSE’ and ‘5 DOLLARS’.

Obverse

Consistent with all Australian legal tender coinage, an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will appear on the obverse side of the coin together with the inscriptions ‘ELIZABETH II’, ‘AUSTRALIA’, ‘2013’ and the initials of the designer Ian Rank-Broadley ‘IRB’.

haha cheeky little buggers didn't put triangle in the description but it is there in the text part, teach me for no reading the fine print.

I thought at first that this thing was from Tuvalu or Nuie. Looks like something one of those tiny islands would issue.
