About this Coin:

Issued to honour the millions of Australians who give their time freely to support their communities, this one-year-only type is highly sought after by decimal collectors. While over 4 million coins entered general circulation and quickly picked up wear, only around 80,000 were struck for official RAM collector sets. Sourcing a pristine Ex-Mint Set specimen that has never seen pocket wear or handling guarantees maximum lustre and detail for your collection. The elegant spiral design by Wojciech Pietranik symbolises the far-reaching impact of volunteer work across the nation.
