The 1909 - 1910
Australian Florin Centenary Collection

The release of this set commemorating the Centenary of the creation of the first Australian coinage, this set honours the original 1910 Coat of Arms Florin, as well as the hype that came so close to the selection as part of Australia's first national currency - the Map of Australia 1909 Florin. The design for the florin was approved by Treasury, with the dies prepared by the Royal Mint, it seemd the Map of Australia would be the design of the Florin, but when the 1910 Florin was reveiled it had the Australian Coat of Arms as the design, which it was requested by the then Governor General. This set contains two 1oz silver proof coins which has been released under the Government of the Cook Islands.
It also contains two replica florins dated 1909 and 1910.

This set has a very tiny mintage of only 1,000 sets being released.

1930 Penny 75th Anniversary
$1 Silver Proof Coin

Australia's highest profile rarity, sought after by collector and investor alike, it is the coin everybody wants in his or her collection - and now you can.

A unique, exclusive tribute to the 75th Anniversary of Australia's number one numismatic icon. This superb commemorative coin offers you the chance to enjoy this most famous of Australian coins.

The Perth Mint has made every effort possible to make the 1930 Penny 75th Anniversary $1 1oz Silver Proof an absolutely authentic tribute to Australia's most illustrious coin.

Using designs taken from an original example of the 1930 Penny to ensure complete accuracy, the Mint has also broken new ground with its use of copper plating. Only recently mastering the art, the Mint's important technical innovation has taken Australian numismatics to a new level. This is the first time Australia's most celebrated copper coin has been honoured in such an appropriate fashion - crafted from pure 99.9% silver and then enhanced with a rich copper finish.

Very exclusive, the 1930 Penny 75th Anniversary $1 1oz Silver Proof has been restricted to a limited mintage of just 5,000 coins. With the profile of the original 1930 Penny so strong outside the collecting arena, there is no doubt that this exquisite precious metal commemorative will catch the eye of a broad cross section of the community. Produced under the Authority of the Tuvalu Islands.

Australia's First Steam Train
Silver Proof Coin
1854-2004

On the 12th of September 1854, the Melbourne and Hobson's Bay Railway Co. which linked Melbourne with its port, became the first steam railway to open in Australia.
The company began building its four kilometre line only the year before. Soon after being tested in May 1854, Australia's first steam train - essentially an improvised locomotive hauling several ballast trucks took directors of the new railway company for a ride at giddying speeds up to 29 kilometres per hour.
The company had two steam trains built and they successfully operated the Melbourne Hobson's Bay Railway Co's half-hourly service between Melbourne and Sandridge (Later Port Melbourne) until the end of the year, marking the beginning of the railway age in Australia.

Issued under the authority of the Cook Islands, this pure proof silver coin, featuring colour on its reverse design, has been released by the Perth Mint to mark the 150th Anniversary of this important milestone in railway history. This coin has a limited mintage of only 4,000 coins worldwide and is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
