“ It was extremely challenging to get this one up and running with lots of laser finishing trials required for the dies ,” he recalls .
Neil is proud of the project ’ s many achievements , including the implementation of single strike coining at high speed , as well as our engineers ’ development of an automated blank feed and an automatic packing system .
The initial release recorded spectacular annual sales of more than 11 million pieces , instantly making it one of Australia ’ s most successful silver bullion coins .
