Lachlan Macquarie’s tomb on the Scottish Isle of Mull includes the inscription ‘THE FATHER OF AUSTRALIA’. The epitaph reflects his many achievements in transforming the penal colony of New South Wales into a fledgling nation. The coin’s reverse inscription LACHLAN MACQUARIE GOVERNOR OF NSW 1810-1821 is accompanied by his portrait and images of the ‘Rum’ Hospital and a holey dollar and dump. The reverse also incorporates a representation of words in an 1817 dispatch in which Macquarie urged Britain to formally adopt the name ‘Australia’.
