2004 Three Coin Set
The
Mint has released a limited three coin set containing a tri-metal coin
which is exclusive to the set. The other two coins are the silver $5 Proof
coin and the $5 Unc bronze coin which are available individually.
The copper outer host ring supports the fine silver ring with the centre
focal point being 24 carat gold.
The gold forms the platform for the hologram of the Australian Olympic
Team Logo. The design brings together the antiquity of the games and two
cultures with two entwined branches. A branch of laurel, representing
the Ancient and modern games, and a branch of Australian wattle have been
intricately incorporated on the reverse. The fine and renowned quality
of the coins is complimented in a superbly crafted Australian Sheoak timber
presentation case. Gold embossed details on the timber case include the
Australian Coat of Arms and the Australian Olympic Committee logo. The
collection is completed with a descriptive book and numbered Certificate
of Authenticity. All coins are dated 2004.
The exclusive offering of the proof coin featuring precious metals and
a hologram is complimented by the very limited number released.
The mintage of the three coin set is only 2,500.
