RD 88120
A shallow dish which has a central area with a quartered armorial shield (which presumably can’t be an official Australian coat of arms since, following the federation of Australia, the first official coat of arms of Australia was granted by King Edward VII on 7 May 1908). The shield is not clear enough to see the symbols on it, but I imagine they represent the Australian states as they were in 1888 – is anyone able to confirm the precise form and symbolism of the shield, please?

The central area is bordered with the legend in raised dots ‘AUSTRALIA’S CENTENARY’ and two flanking shields bearing the dates 1788 and 1888.
