2016 Six Coin Proof Set - The Changeover, Coin Set from Australia - detailed information

This is the standard Australian Brilliant Uncirculated coin set for the year. It contains all the regular circulating denominations from $2 down to 5 cents, in a special commemorative version marking Fifty Years of Decimal Currency. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the changeover from pre-decimal to decimal currency in 1966, the Royal Australian Mint introduced a new type of circulating commemoratives in which the commemorative design is on the obverse - the coins have the regular "definitive" reverses and the obverses feature representations of pre-decimal coins issued by Australia before 1966. To make space for those designs, the Queen's portrait on the obverses is much smaller than usual.

The coins in this set are in Proof FDC grade.
