Dear Coin Collectors,
We are proud to announce the release of the $2 Frontline Workers commemorative coin by the Royal Australian Mint. This colored coin is a tribute to the unsung heroes who have been at the forefront of the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, working tirelessly to keep Australians safe and healthy.
The coin features 12 representations of some of the frontline workers, including doctors, nurses, paramedics, teachers, cleaners, retail workers, and contact tracers, who have played an essential role in our society during these unprecedented times.
As the CEO of the Royal Australian Mint, Leigh Gordon, stated, "Every time someone receives this coin in their change, they will be reminded of the perseverance and service of Australia’s Frontline Workers."
This coin is a meaningful addition to any collection and is a tribute to the thousands of workers who put their own health and safety on the line to fulfil their roles and keep our communities functioning.
With two million of these coins to be released into circulation across Australia over the coming weeks, now is the perfect time to add this unique piece of Australian monetary history to your collection.
Best regards,
The Effigy Coins Australia Team
