Context

Released by the RAM is this Fine Silver (.999) Proof version of the Great Aussie Coin Hunt series of coins that were also issued in Aluminium-bronze in change, tubes & coincards at Australia Post outlets. This silver coin was issued in a capsule in a 26 coin cased set, with limited edition mintage 250, with certificate. These were retailed at $1250 but are now fetching much higher prices on the secondary market. This coin is the Letter 'X' for Xantippe. Around 240km north of Perth, X marks the spot on a tiny community in the region of Dalwallinu. The 20 residents of Xantipe are very proud to live in the only place in Australia to start with the letter X. Xantipe doesn't qualify for its own postcode, so it shares code 6609 with Dalwallinu, 33km away.
