The $10 Westarctican Dollars Coin or $10 WAD coin has been a popular and frequently-produced denomination of Westarctica's coins. $10 WAD coins were minted by the Central Bank of Westarctica in the years 2005, 2008, and 2011 in a total of five different designs.
Historically, the $10 WAD coins paid homage to the ruler of Westarctica, however, when the 2011 mintage was created, it was the year following the overthrow of Grand Duke Jon-Lawrence, therefore Westarctica had no Grand Duke upon the throne.
The 2005 $10 Westarctican Dollars coin was the third coin minted by the Central Bank and the first bearing a likeness of a person. It features an image of Grand Duke Travis on the obverse, which was created from a portrait session. The reverse provides a rare example of a color version of Westarctica's arms as they were in 2005.
