Comments

Released by the RAM is this Fine Silver (.999) Proof version of the Great Aussie Coin Hunt series of coins that were also issued in Aluminium-bronze in change, tubes & coincards at Australia Post outlets. This silver coin was issued in a capsule in a 26 coin cased set, with limited edition of mintage 250, with certificate. These were retailed at $1250 but are now fetching much higher prices on the secondary market.


This coin is the Letter "F" for Footy. For generations, Aussies everywhere have donned the colours and fired up the telly in anticipation of their favourite game, be it Rugby League, Rugby Union, Aussie Rules or Soccer. We're sometimes accused of treating footy like a religion - the truth is that footy is a beloved part of Australia's culture, history and community.
