Twenty Cents 2014 Australian Comforts Fund, Coin from Australia - detailed information

The Australian 20 cent coin was first introduced with decimalisation on 14 February 1966 when it replaced the pre-decimal Australian florin, to which it is equal in size and mass. The original reverse design by Stuart Devlin has not been changed since its introduction.

The denomination is occasionally used by both the Royal Australian Mint and the Perth Mint to issue collector coins, which are legal tender in Australia - such as this one.

This coin is part of a non-circulating range commemorating Australia's involvement in various wars, and is dedicated to the Australian Comforts Fund.

Australian Comforts Fund (ACF) was an Australian umbrella organisation for voluntary bodies set up after the outbreak of World War I. The Australian Comforts Fund was established on 24 August 1916, and was dissolved on 16 April 1920. It was then re-established in January 1940 to assist with World War II, and was dissolved once more on 27 June 1946

No coins of this type were issued into circulation.
