Celebrate a landmark of Australian innovation and history with this exquisite 2025 $10 Gold Proof Coin, marking the 60th Anniversary of the Royal Australian Mint. Since its grand opening in 1965, the Mint has stood as a symbol of Australia’s economic independence and exceptional craftsmanship. This coin commemorates six decades of excellence in coin production, reflecting Australia's rich heritage and the pioneering spirit that continues to shape its future.

The Royal Australian Mint, opened in 1965 by HRH Prince Philip, was established to produce Australia's decimal currency, signifying a pivotal step towards economic self-reliance. Located in Canberra, it was the first mint in Australia not to operate as a branch of the British Royal Mint, heralding a new era for the nation.

Over the past sixty years, the Mint has evolved into a global leader in coin production, producing billions of coins and supplying currency to over 30 countries. Its dedication to excellence is evidenced by numerous international awards, recognising achievements in design, technology, and craftsmanship. These accolades underscore the Mint's reputation for innovation and superior quality.

Beyond its role in producing circulating currency, the Mint plays a crucial part in commemorating Australia's heritage through special coin programs. These programs honour the nation's diverse culture, significant historical events, and important milestones. From celebrating Indigenous art to marking pivotal moments in Australian history, these coins serve as both legal tender and storytelling mediums, connecting Australians with their rich heritage.
