I want that EMU on the coin
Today I saw a new release of the Royal Australian Mint and the packaging immediately drew my attention. I love it and then I looked at the coins themselves and ….they are boring
and here is the coin:
What a missed chance. Why not portraying that bushranger on an Emu also on the coin. And what about the serie title. The bold, the bad and the ugly? Was the good the bad and the ugly not allowed? And is the bushranger the bold or the ugly?
He really existed!
"Colonial Australia was a dangerous place, with lawless renegades known as bushrangers haunting the roads and settlements. One story tells of the extraordinary John Francis Peggotty, known as the ‘Birdman of the Coorong’: a distinctive figure who held up travellers from the back of a riding ostrich. "
I want the birdman on a coin!

I liked your story and I sympathize with your feelings about the emu and the bushranger.
Well... at least Ned Kelly’s mask is on the coin. He is the most famous Aussie bushranger. ☺️
