For 200 Years the Agricultural Shows in Australia have weathered wars, depressions, drought, product price slumps, and most recently, pandemics.  Today they are still the main representative of Agriculture in contemporary society providing an important link between the city and country.  With 50,000 Volunteers involved across all shows and over 6 million people attending each year, agricultural shows are amongst the largest community events in the country.

Nothing conjures the experience of an Agricultural show like the sights and sounds of the ring and sideshow alley, the frantic thud of the woodchopping competition and the prized livestock and produce arrayed in the pavillions.  Making the bicentenary of the foundation of Australia's 8 state and territory Royal Agricultural Societies and the first Agricultural Show in 1822 this coin celebrates their contributions to Australian Society over the past 200 years
