In the forensics of the Commonwealth, the $5 Silver Proof is the Strategic Record. The Canberra Protocol is a clinical audit of the Royal Australian Mint’s primary commemorative hardware, tracking the evolution of the 'High-Depth' strike from the 1988 Bicentennial inception to the modern era.
This archive documents the Geography of Sovereignty. By housing these 'Fine Silver' mirrors, we are observing the State’s attempt to map its own identity onto a $5 unit.
