Australia Dorothea Mackellar - The Colours of Light 2025 50c Uncirculated Coin
An outstanding release from the Royal Australian Mint, this unique tribute to poet Dorothea Mackellar and her poem The Colours of Light is a rare ‘off-metal’ striking. Not struck from the traditional alloy of copper-nickel, this 50c coin is struck from ALUMINIUM-BRONZE!
Capturing the essence of the Australian landscape through her evocative, vivid poetry, Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968) is one of Australia’s most famous poets. Enshrining the lyrical beauty of her work in official Australian legal tender, this superb tribute to Mackellar’s poem The Colours of Light is one of the most beautifully designed RAM coins we have seen. An exquisite work of numismatic art, sure to be targeted as a value-for-money tribute to a truly iconic Australian, the Dorothea Mackellar The Colours of Light 2025 50c Aluminium-Bronze Uncirculated Coin will also be highly sought after by serious coin collectors.
‘Off-metal’ strikings are always hugely popular, and as this is one of very few occasions that the Royal Australian Mint has struck the 50c in aluminium-bronze, enormous demand is expected. Crucially, this unique, one-year-only type will not be issued for circulation and will never be found in your change!
With the limited edition of this stunning coin restricted to a mere 2,500, and a tiny number in stock at Downies, we must impose a limit of one coin per household. Click add to cart!
