Notes:

The specimen coin has a 'reverse frosting' finish where the field is frosted to contrast with the highly polished raised design. It was distributed encapsulated and mounted on a colourful see-both-sides cardboard card protected by a plastic sleeve.
In a repeat of the previous year, a proof version of the one ounce silver skippy dollar coin was also released. The proof has frosted designs with mirror fields and was housed, encapsulated in a official plush green velvet hinged-lid case, protected by a colourful presentation box.
The specimen version was included in 1,000 1oz Silver Millennium 4-Coin Sets released jointly by the Perth and Canberra mints.
