For anyone who has read The Rainbow Serpent to youngsters, and for those who grew up enthralled by Roughsey’s retelling of this powerful Dreamtime story, the official issue of Royal Australian Mint and Australia Post honours the 50th anniversary of the legendary artwork with the 2025 20c stamp & coin cover commemorating The Rainbow Serpent. 

It features a beautifully 20c coloured-coin, exclusively released for this occasion, alongside an official postage stamp inspired by The Rainbow Serpent.

Released as Australian legal tender, the uncirculated aluminium bronze coin is housed in a beautifully designed card with a circular window revealing the coin’s reverse and obverse designs.
