Notes:

The 1997 'C' mintmarked Kingsford Smith dollar was struck at the Royal Australian Mint in Canberra on a 'mint your own' press. It was also struck at the Royal Canberra Show. The coins were inserted special folders and sold for $2.

The coin was also included in a special One Dollar Uncirculated Dual Set. With this coin, for the first time in Australian numismatic history, a second design for the same denomination, commemorating the same event, has been issued.
