The coin was bought lawfully by a collector in the early 20th century and donated to a museum in Torun, where it became a protected object of Poland.

The first colonists and convicts landed in 1788 in New South Wales, the coast of which had been charted by Captain Cook in 1770. By 1800 the population had grown to 6000.
