Australia, Hutt River Province. $100 Dollars 1988 (No Reserve Price) The Principality of Hutt River, often referred to by its former name, the Hutt River Province, was a micronation in Australia.

The principality was located 517 km (354 mi) north of Perth, near the town of Northampton in the state of Western Australia. It had an area of 75 square kilometers (29 sq mi), making it larger than several independent countries. It was not recognized as a country by the Australian Government nor any other national government, and the High Court of Australia and Supreme Court of Western Australia rejected submissions arguing that it was not subject to Australian laws.
