Taking the ‘Pledge of Commitment’ at an Australian Citizenship ceremony is a proud and often moving occasion for many new Australians. With few mementos as significant as a legal tender coin, this easily-affordable $1 commemorative is a fantastic keepsake that will instantly prompt memories of that treasured moment.
Commonwealth Coat of Arms
Struck by The Perth Mint in uncirculated quality, the base metal coin portrays the Commonwealth Coat of Arms featuring a kangaroo and an emu – said by some to have been chosen because they can only move forwards!
‘P’ Mintmark
The coin’s reverse also incorporates The Perth Mint’s historic ‘P’ mintmark.
Australian Legal Tender
Issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965, the coin bears the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse.
Coloured Presentation Card
The coin is housed on a coloured presentation card depicting iconic Australian symbols. Incorporating a Certificate of Authenticity, the card features a fold-out stand for upright display.
Superb Gift for New Australians
The coin would also make a superb gift idea. So if you know someone preparing to become an Australian citizen, cap off their brilliant day with this wonderful momento.
