First Charles III Australian $1!
A major milestone in Australian currency history, we are delighted to present the first Australian $1 coin of King Charles III!
Also representing the first Charles III coin to be issued for circulation in Australia, this first-of-its-kind type unites Stuart Devlin’s iconic Mob of Kangaroos design with the portrait of the king by the Royal Mint’s Dan Thorne. Remarkably, this is the first time in 70 years that the obverse of an Australian coin has carried a portrait other than that of the late Queen Elizabeth II.
The dawn of a new era in numismatics, the first Charles III Australian $1 is an essential element of every collection – and this is your chance to add it to your own collection in strictly Uncirculated quality! In ‘as struck’ condition, each coin has been sourced from a RAM Mint Roll! Protecting that mint state quality for the long-term, each coin is set within a credit card-style pack.
An outstanding opportunity, the Charles III 2023 $1 Al-Br Coin Pack is a bargain at just $12. Act now!
A strictly limited edition, this set unites the FIRST Australian $1 coin of Elizabeth II with the FIRST Australian $1 of Charles III!
The only $1 bearing the Machin portrait, the first Elizabeth II $1 coin was Australia’s first $1 coin. The first Charles III Australian $1 is graced with the king’s portrait by the Royal Mint’s Dan Thorne. Bearing Stuart Devlin’s Mob of Roos motif, both coins are included in strictly Uncirculated condition.
With the limited edition of this richly symbolic release just 5,000, you must act now!
Defined by Unc quality, this set unites the LAST Elizabeth II circulation Australian $1 with the FIRST Australian Charles III $1!
