This attractive little coin celebrates a historic WA milestone.
The visit of the Vlamingh flotilla to the west coast of Australia in late 1696 - early 1697 inspired a number of tricentennial events to commemorate the occasion.
This coin from the Perth Mint was just one of them.
Commodore Willem de Vlamingh, commanded a flotilla of three ships which visited the Swan River region in 1696-97.
The primary object of their visit was to search for the ship, Ridderschap van Holland, missing since 1694.
Of secondary importance was to gather intelligence and make charts for the possible future use of the VOC.
Several groups reconnoitred Rottnest Island and the mainland.
This coin remains housed in the original presentation case, and is accompanied by its serial-numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
