ABOUT THIS COIN
Each year on 25 April, vast numbers of Australians mark Anzac Day by attending a dawn service. An evocative way to commemorate the sacrifices of those who have served their country, dawn services are held throughout Australia, as well as at some key commemorative sites overseas – such as Gallipoli, where the original Anzacs landed in 1915.
In 2020 and 2021, when most could not attend physical services due to COVID restrictions, Australians still partook in the tradition by gathering in their driveways in the early hours of the morning. This reflects the enduring place that the dawn service holds in our collective consciousness.
Ahead of Anzac Day 2026, the Royal Australian Mint commemorates the dawn service with this stunning coloured $2 coin. Presented in Mint-branded wrapping, these premium coin rolls offer collectors the chance to own the coins in uncirculated condition.
