Australia 2002 Proof Coin Set Outback

Australia 2002 Proof Coin Set Outback

Obverse: Elizabeth II to right, legend around

Reverse: Circulating and comemmorative coin designs

This set is superbly presented and has a uniquely Australian theme.

Australia has been producing proof year sets ever since decimal currency was introduced in 1966.

Proof coins are the same as those we see in our change, but are struck with specially prepared machinery on specially prepared blanks - the designs always stand out magnificently.

2002 marked the Year of the Outback, an event intended to raise awareness of Outback Australia, its immense diversity and its vital role in our future.

The 2002 proof set built on the popularity of the 2000 and 2001 proof sets, and also included a $1 coin featuring colour on its reverse.

The coins, case, outer shipper and certificate are all included and remain in excellent condition.
