In 2006, the [[Central Bank of Westarctica]] minted two different $1 WAD [[Coins of Westarctica|coins]] featuring Sherman Island and the Westarctican coat of arms on the reverse with a portrait of [[Antarctica|Antarctic]] explorer [[Rolad Amundsen]] on the obverse. The coins were released with two different metallic profiles: one in copper-nickel with silver plating, the other in copper-nickel with gold plating. The entire mintage of 210 coins sold out in record time for the Central Bank. | In 2006, the [[Central Bank of Westarctica]] minted two different $1 WAD [[Coins of Westarctica|coins]] featuring Sherman Island and the Westarctican coat of arms on the reverse with a portrait of [[Antarctica|Antarctic]] explorer [[Rolad Amundsen]] on the obverse.
