Post by: jens coins on May 09, 2017, 09:07:22 AM
Read that the RAM are off to Perth with the Trans-Australian Railway Tour on 20th & 21st May.

The Mint is all aboard and leaving Canberra to bring the people of Australia a piece of coining history. To celebrate one hundred years since the establishment of the Trans-Australian Railway, which successfully united the east and west of Australia, we are making tracks to visit a town near you!

Go full steam ahead to visit our pop-up stalls for your ticket to trade. You can:
##Trade your cash for a $10 pack of the 2017 $1 Circulating Coin – 100 Years of Anzac: The Spirit Lives and the 2017 $1 Coloured Circulating Lest We Forget Coin
##Trade $10 to strike the 'Australia' counterstamp on a 2017 $1 Uncirculated Coin commemorating the centenary of the Trans-Australian Railway
##Trade your time to peruse the latest collectible products.

Perth WA will be the third stop for the Trans-Australian Tour in 2017 then it's off to Mandurah WA.

The mobile Mint team hopes to see you there!

I wonder if the RAM will stay on board for Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney legs of the Trans continental......or Indian Pacific as it is now called.

I'm delighted to see that they're coming to Brisbane. The closest the Changeover Tour ever got to us was Toowoomba. :)
