About This Item

Aussie Flag micro Coin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The flag of Australia was chosen in 1901 from entries in a worldwide design competition held following Federation. It was approved by Australian and British authorities over the next few years, although the exact specifications of the flag were changed several times both intentionally and as a result of confusion. The current specifications were published in 1934, and in 1954 the flag became legally recognised as the "Australian National Flag".

The flag is a defaced Blue Ensign: a blue field with the Union Flag in the canton (upper hoist quarter), and a large white seven-pointed star known as the Commonwealth Star in the lower hoist quarter. The fly contains a representation of the Southern Cross constellation, made up of five white stars – one small five-pointed star and four, larger, seven-pointed stars.

The flag of Australia is legally defined in the Flags Act 1953. In addition there are other official flags representing Australia, its people and core functions of government.

Retrieve It from a Cache 4/6/2010 where's wally walker retrieved it from Ozzie! Ollie! Ollie! … Oye! Oye! Oye! New South Wales, Australia   Visit Log

Wanted to move this one on today but had no luck with GPS. Thought it may have to do with cloud cover. Got home and Geohusband told me he had been fiddling with GPS and had changed the Datum. No wonder I kept striking out. Arrgh!!! Now that I have fixed GPS I will move this one on when I find my next cache!
