Description

In 2026, the Royal Australian Mint celebrates the sixtieth anniversary of Australian decimal currency by exploring six decades of our shared numismatic history.

Australia in the 1960s was a young country wanting to assert itself on the world stage. The changeover to decimal currency was a symbolic and practical part of this. The government's public education campaign, with the cartoon character 'DollarBill", helped Australians make the changeover on 14 February 1966 without a hitch. While Stuart Devlin's iconic and enduring circulating designs remain a timeless testament to this aspirational endeavour.

Since then, the Mint and Australian coins have adapted to the changing times and requirements.

  • Set contains ‘C’ Mintmark and ‘S’, ‘M’ and ‘B’ Privy Mark coins

  • Coin’s reverse celebrates Australian decimal currency by elegantly combining design elements from all eight standard circulating coins.

  • Coin’s obverse features the effigy of King Charles III designed by Daniel Thorne
