To celebrate the new millennium, the Royal Australian Mint issued this eye-catching commemorative 50c coin. 18 years later, perhaps due to its striking reverse design and instant souvenir appeal, this coin has proven increasingly difficult to find in change!

This unique, one-year-only type was issued by the Royal Australian Mint. Designed and sculpted by Vladimir Gottwald, the coin's bold reverse motif showcases a curved Australian flag, with the words 'Millennium year' encircling the round surface.

It's increasingly hard to find this coin in change in any grade, and thanks to 18 years' potential wear and tear, impossible in Uncirculated condition! This excellent presentation includes an informative, credit card-style pack and is an absolute must for the decimal enthusiast.
