A landmark Australian release and an outstanding centre-piece for any decimal coin collection.
Issued by the Royal Australian Mint in 2003, this prestigious six-coin set was Australia’s first complete decimal year set struck in 99.9% fine silver. It contains silver proof versions of all six circulating denominations: 5 cents, 10 cents, 20 cents, 50 cents, $1 and $2.
The 20-cent, 50-cent and $1 coins feature special designs honouring Australia’s volunteers and their invaluable contribution to the community. Each coin has been individually encapsulated and finished to proof standard, displaying frosted design details against deeply mirrored fields.
The set is beautifully housed in a handcrafted Western Australian jarrah presentation box, finished with Australia’s Coat of Arms embossed in silver on the lid.
