In keeping with the tradition of crafting memorable minted creations for keepsake items to mark personal occasions, we have produced unforgettable editions as charming gifts.

These coins capture the faces of the brave, the magnificence of the convoy and a lone horseman. The horseman’s silhouette acts as a counterpoint to the repetition in the design. Where history remembers wars by numbers, be it casualties or ships lost, the horseman signifies that there is an individual story behind each fact recalled. 210351 View video of CPL Ben Roberts-Smith VC MG talking about the official Anzac Centenary Coin Program on the iPad edition. $100.00 210354 2014 $10 Gold Proof Coin $360.00 Nominal Specifications $1 $10 Ag 99.9% Au 99.99% 1 oz 1/10 oz 40.00 mm 17.53 mm proof proof 10 000 1500 W.

I grew up on the East Coast, so I was inspired by my surroundings including the beaches, rainforest, countryside and the unique Australian wildlife. After I finished school, I studied a Bachelor Degree in Natural History Illustration which included botanical illustrations, as well as acquired an Advanced Diploma in Graphic Design. Together they combined my love for nature and science with art and digital media. Working at the Mint, I have been able to utilise my experience in botanical illustrations and also further refine my conceptual View more of Bronwyn's story on the iPad edition. 36 development of medallic art and sculpting under the guidance of the highly credited Wojciech Pietranik. Being part of significant projects like the extensive Alphabet Collection and the complex Eternal Love coin were challenging yet exciting. I have been extremely lucky to design the coins from the Alphabet Collection and illustrate the animals on the packaging, capturing each animal’s individual personality. The creativity and fun in the coin design studio doesn't stop. I am currently working on several new exciting projects which explore varied themes and design styles, to be released soon for our collectors to enjoy!

FROM THE VAULT H O N O U R I N G A U S T R A L I A ’ S F I R S T V I CT O R I A C R O S S R E C I P I E N T Shells and bullets he completely disregarded … to the wounded he was gentleness itself. 1 The simplicity of the coin’s design allows his story of courage under fire to speak for itself. In 1900 Captain Neville Howse of the NSW Medical Staff Corps became the first Australian recipient of the Victoria Cross medal for gallantry in the face of the enemy. During action in South Africa, Sir Neville Howse VC saw a man fall wounded. He charged through heavy gunfire to rescue the man, continuing on foot when his horse was shot from under him. His grandson who currently resides in Canberra, Jon Howse, speaks of his illustrious ancestor with pride. “He was a great humanitarian for his time, always focused on the welfare of the wounded, regardless of what side they had been fighting on.” In 2000, the Mint paid tribute to Major General Sir Neville Reginald Howse VC KCB KCMG, with a commemorative $1 uncirculated coin. This is one of many military themed coins within the National Coin Collection. The 2000 $1 coin bears an image of the Victoria Cross medal, Sir Neville Howse VC’s name and the date of his award. 1.
