A beautiful example of Australia's iconic Coat of Arms fifty cent piece, struck in stunning proof quality by the Royal Australian Mint.
This coin was carefully removed from an official 1985 Proof Set and immediately housed in a protective capsule. It has been handled only with gloves and has never been touched directly, preserving the brilliant mirrored fields and frosted design details that make proof coinage so desirable.
The Australian fifty cent coin remains one of the nation's most recognisable decimal coins, featuring the Australian Coat of Arms with the kangaroo and emu supporting the Commonwealth Shield. Struck in proof quality, the intricate details of the design are highlighted by the exceptional contrast between the frosted devices and mirror-like background.
Unlike circulated examples, proof coins are specially struck using polished dies and carefully prepared blanks, resulting in a superior finish and outstanding detail.
