Suspicion surrounding the demise of Phar Lap refuses to go away, even after 75 years. On 5 April 1932, Australia’s greatest racehorse died in puzzling circumstances on a ranch in California. Devastated by the news, many Australians were convinced that their beloved chestnut gelding, the winner of 37 races from just 51 starts, had been deliberately poisoned.
Proof Quality 99.9% Pure Silver
This stunning tribute to Phar Lap is struck from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver in proof quality.
Superb Reverse Design
The coin's reverse depicts jockey Jim Pike riding Phar Lap to victory in the 1930 Melbourne Cup at Flemington Park. The design, which incorporates The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark, also includes the dates 1932 - 2007 and the words PHAR LAP 75th ANNIVERSARY.
Australian Legal Tender
Issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965, the coin’s obverse depicts the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
