The arrival of colour in 1975 transformed the viewing experience, ushering in iconic shows like Countdown. Through the decades, programs such as Neighbours, Play School and Four Corners helped shape national conversations and cultural identity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs1844654\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs4E9546B\"\u003eThe coin's reverse features an amazing design that includes over 45 different symbols and elements representing the vast diversity of Australian television over the last 70 years, overlaid with stylised 'test pattern' colours.
