Soopun Island is a small island of the Great Palm Island group situated
on the east coast of Queensland, Australia, some 800 kilometers north
of the Tropic of Capricorn. This group of islands were used by the
Queensland Government as a settlement for Aboriginals considered guilty
of infractions such as being disruptive, being pregnant to white man
or being born with “mixed blood”.
This low mintage coin pays homage to Australians
