Australia 1953-84 Currency Changeover Very Fine-Uncirculated 12-Coin Collection
A comprehensive celebration of Australia’s conversion from predecimal to decimal currency, this sensational set comprises the LAST six predecimal coin types, united with the FIRST six decimal coin types!
The bedrock of the nation’s circulating currency for decades, Australia’s predecimal denominations included the copper halfpenny & penny, as well as the silver threepence, sixpence, shilling & florin. Struck during the early years of the record-breaking reign of Queen Elizabeth II, from 1953 to 1964, all six predecimal issues are included in this set – dates of our choice.
The perfect partners, the set also includes the six original decimal denominations – 1c, 2c, 5c, 10c, 20c and famous 1966 Silver Round 50c – Australia’s only issued decimal coin struck from precious metal. Bearing the first decimal coinage portrait of Elizabeth II, created by Arnold Machin, the coins in this set were issued from 1966 to 1984 – dates of our choice.
In Very Fine to Uncirculated condition, the twelve coins are individually encapsulated and housed within an all-new, illustrated, informative hardback portfolio. A lasting keepsake of the greatest milestone in Australian currency history, and surprisingly affordable, this presentation would also make a fantastic gift.
