1997 Harbour Bridge & Opera House 2 Coin Silver Proof $10 Set
Please note: This item is second hand and may have nicks, marks and or scuffs to the inner and or outer box that does not impact on the quality of the coin.
The two coins in the set are:
- Sydney Harbour Bridge Ten Dollar
- Sydney Opera House Ten Dollar
Sydney Harbour is the heart of one of the world's great and most recognised cities. As a spectacle, by day or by night, it has few equals. Looming over the harbour and linking communities in the north to the city center, the Sydney Harbour Bridge is both an icon and a lifeline, a source of frustration and a focus of the city's identity.
On the other side of Circular Quay, the Opera House both complements and contrasts with the famous 'coathanger'. Designed by Danish architect Joern Utzon, and completed in 1973, its graceful 'sails' present a stunning prospect from land or water.
These two structures have become among the most recognisable symbols of Australia and are a fitting introduction to the 'Australian Landmark' series.
A total of 20,000 sets were released with the two coins being housed, encapsulated in an orange, hinged-lid presentation case and protected by a colourful cardboard box.
