Issued to honour those lost in all wars, the Royal Australian Mint's 2012 Remembrance Day $2 commemorative was unquestionably one of the major highlights of 2012. Indeed, as Australia's very first circulating commemorative $2 type, this ground-breaking release is seen by many as the highlight for the year!

The strikingly elegant yet powerful reverse design features a single Flanders Poppy in the centre of a field of text that alternately reads 'Lest We Forget' and 'Remembrance Day', all flanked by two smaller poppies along the edge.
