That's crazy. I've got one too, I just never really thought of it as iconic.

Is there a better example of these men not understanding Australia than them stating that a founding father of Australia is more significant than a clothesline? I think not.

[@azzureone78]

They put Henry Parkes on a special $5 note in 2001 to celebrate 100 years of nationhood so I guess the mint thought he'd had a go already and plus a Hills Hoist is FAR more iconic than he is :)

The “Hills Hoist” is actually a very important in Australian cultural identity- it was one of the very first Australian inventions that was used by common people all over Australia and was an object that was in nearly every backyard in Australia. It was used by children to swing around on and was incorporated into children’s play to be turned into magical castles with some clean sheets. It was also an example of how an Australian battler could Invent something that would improve the world and make him a fortune. One of the Australian identity is that we have is that of buying a house with a backyard that includes a pumpkin patch and a hills hoist.... We even have a song that everyone knows the words of that incorporates this imagery into the song.... It goes something like “give me a home amongst the gum trees with lots of Plumtree a sheep or two and a kangaroo... a close line out the back... Veranda out the front and an old rocking chair”

[@Rottnwoman]

@@egodreas because its not a "clothes line" like you would find, it is a design that was different from other places, and was found everywhere i guess the easiest way would be, "everywhere has cheese, but spray cheese is american" ? therefor it is a very cultural thing

@@copuis But it's just one of those freestanding rotary ones, isn't it? I've probably had one in every house I've ever lived in. As have most of my neighbours and friends and relatives.

My grandfather was a jackaroo… It’s a type of worker amongst the cattle stations or shearing stations in the outback who usually did all the odd jobs. If they went out and repaired the fenceline and counted the livestock they were called Boundry riders. Jackaroos look after the livestock and help with the rounding up and sharing… Although shearer’s do most of the shearing work. The jackaroo is the male version the jillaroo is the female version.

Parkes was important enough that they named a town after him, as well as a dozen other things. He could hardly be a PM of Australia because Australia didn’t exist. He was however the Premier of NSW, the founding and most important colony, for a record 5 terms. That the most powerful premier sought a united country rather than champion individual “states rights” was the driving force behind the unification. Federal Govt necessarily means less power for your own state.

I haven't seen an Iced Vovo in ages they are sickeningly sweet. Go for the other bickies A jackaroo/jillaroo is like an apprentice farmer! They're fairly respected too, a lot of them are being trained to take over the farms as they move away from being family businesses (although they can still be family!)

He really go the ball rolling. He is said to have been a great orator, his Tenterfield oration is one of those throng I definitely remember reading about at school. Yeah he really got federation happening. If he hadn’t died five years before 1901 I think he would have been remembered more. Although he helped achieve federation, he wasn’t there to write the constitution or serve in federal parliament. But I was taught about him at school. Like many times. He was always featured in any chapter on federation or colonial NSW.

Hills Hoists are definitely a classic Aussie thing. My kids climb up on to it and swing around. I'm proud to say though that I have never played Goon of Fortune.

[@patentleatherkicks]

I've seen Hills Hoists in the USA and Mexico and Europe and never realized that they were culturally significant for Australia. Actually I never even knew what they were called. For non-Australians it seems a bit random to put one on a coin. I'm not saying Hills Hoists aren't great, just that for non-Australians it's not exactly obvious. Like, imagine if Canada had a coin with a picture of a plastic garbage bag on it. Technically, garbage bags were invented in Canada, but who would know that? And obviously garbage bags are a big part of Canadian culture, but not in a way that anyone really celebrates. So that's about how random putting a clothesline on a coin seems. Obviously it makes sense if you're Australian.

[@melissah1467]

Esky, hills hoist and iced vovo were a bit more vague but I’m so happy to see these on there!
