Issued to mark the bicentenary of Captain James Cook's 1770 voyage along Australia's east coast, this set captures the excitement of early decimal currency just four years after the 1966 changeover.
Presented in a handsome illustrated blue and black folder with informative panels on Australia's unique wildlife designs by Stuart Devlin and Arnold Machin, plus detailed specifications and historical notes, all six coins are in pristine Uncirculated condition – a perfect snapshot of 1970 Australian coinage.
