1984 Royal Australian Mint Uncirculated Set

1984 Australian Uncirculated Mint Set – Featuring the Scarce 20c

Secure a pivotal collector's set in modern Australian decimal coinage with the official 1984 Royal Australian Mint uncirculated set. Highly sought-after by decimal collectors, this six-coin release is especially notable for containing a guaranteed pristine example of the elusive 1984 20c coin, which is virtually impossible to locate in high grades today due to low circulation demand and widespread melting by the Mint.
