2021 Holden Australian Icon 1948 Holden 48-215 Medallion & Stamp Cover PNC.When the Holden 48-215 sedan rolled off the production line in 12948, the first car wholly manufactured in Australia, it was an instant hit with the public.The production of 'Australia's Own Car', which became known as the 'FX', boosted national pride and made the Holden brand a household name:; the FX became the highest-selling passenger car in Australia by 1950.Featuring the latest in unitary construction techniques, the FX was comfortable to drive, with room for six passengers.It handled perfectly in Australia's rough and rugged conditions, powered by a Stovebolt six-cylinder OHV engine and a three-speed manual gearbox, with column change.The original sedan was joined by the 50-2106 utility in 1951 and the 48-215-257 Business sedan in 1953.The stamp and coin cover features an illustrated envelope featuring the 1948 Holden 48-215. It also includes an Australian $1.10c commemorative stamp and is post marked First Date of Issue 12 April 2021, Port Melbourne VIC 3207.The medallion's obverse features the inscription Holden Australian Icon along with the Holden logo.Denomination :        MedallionMetal :                     Zinc Alloy with Antique Silver PlatingWeight :                  TBADiameter :               60 mmMintage :                 1,500Australia Post Seal of Authenticity
