Q7. Why are 1994 Australian $1 coins worth more than 1989 Australian $1 coins?

The coins then were made of 80% silver and 20% copper, but as the value of a free-floating silver price became higher, the coins' bullion value became more valuable than their face value and so were withdrawn from circulation. so the value of 1994 Australian $1 coins was more than 1989 Australian $1 coins.
