Australia Lest We Forget Peacekeeping 75th Anniversary 2022 $2 Colour Aluminium-Bronze Uncirculated Coin Pack

Australia Lest We Forget Peacekeeping 75th Anniversary 2022 $2 Colour Aluminium-Bronze Uncirculated Coin Pack

Honouring Australia’s long-term contribution to maintaining peace around the globe, the 2022 Peacekeeping 75th Anniversary Uncirculated $2 is a key coin for Australian decimal collectors.

Australia’s commitment to international peacekeeping was sparked by WWII. In the aftermath of the conflict, the efforts of Labor politician ‘Doc’ Evatt saw Australia play a key role in the foundation of the UN, created specifically to promote global peace. Australia’s role ‘on the ground’ began in 1947, when four observers took part in the UN’s first peacekeeping mission, overseeing a 1947 ceasefire between nationalist and Dutch forces in what is now Indonesia. Since then, tens of thousands of Australians have participated in peacekeeping missions all over the world.

Struck by the Royal Australian Mint, the 2022 Peacekeeping $2 is highly sought after – as with all full-colour $2 commemoratives. The series is the hottest in Australian numismatics, with every colour $2 hoarded out of circulation. With a mintage of just 2 million – minuscule compared to the average annual $2 mintage of 28 million – the Peacekeeping $2 is naturally seldom seen in change. Even if you’re lucky and find an example of this $2 type, it won’t be in Uncirculated condition – as presented here.
