Australia switched to decimal currency on 14th February 1966 and the country is celebrating the 50th Anniversary of this important milestone. The Royal Australian Mint did the same in their own unique way by releasing a commemorative silver proof 50 cent coin with selective gold plating.

The coin also retains the 1966 round shape making it a desirable item for coin collectors and also something that highlights the evolution of Australian coinage. This mintage limit of this 13.70g 99.9% Silver 50c Proof coin is 7500
