Here is your chance to really "make" some money. This tour allows you to mint your own AUD1 coin as well as view the large coin collection on site. Find out Governor Macquarie's unique solution to the 1813 coin shortage, discover "Adelaide Ingots" and the 1930-penny that was never meant to exist. This unique exhibit is perfect for coin collections and kids alike (both big and little!) The Coin Shop allows you to take some treasures home and the cafe offers a quiet spot to put your feet up and enjoy a snack.
