My mum received one of those from Charley and Camilla.. Also from a stack of others.. the GG, PM, opposition leader, state Premier, etc etc etc.. Apparently that's all repeated if someone makes it to 105.. Mum got to 102.

My great grandmother was born in the year of federation. When she turned 100 she received a lovely note from the Queen and John Howard. She also received a special sort of medallion for being the same age as Australia. She was moderately chuffed.
