Australia 1970 6-Coin Mint Set
A crucial issue in the history of Australian decimal currency, we are delighted to present the Royal Australian Mint’s 1970 6-Coin Mint Set!
Australia embraced decimal currency in 1966, and, before long, the Royal Australian Mint struck the nation’s first decimal commemorative coin – the 1970 Captain Cook 50c. A unique, one-year-only type, this 50c tribute to British explorer James Cook is united in the official 1970 Mint Set with the 1c, 2c, 5c, 10c and 20c.
