What do we know about the 2025 $2 Remembrance 80th Anniversary of End/WWII Coloured Coin that is all over eBag already but no mention on the RAM shop site?
Circulating?
Rolls?
Scam? (Yes, perpetrated by the government.)
The PNC is in the latest stamp bulletin and also a PNC in the Impressions catalogue for 2025.
There will be a circulating version as a picture of a RAM bag is on eBay and the loose ones say coming from RAM roll on eBay so rolls must be available thru dealers as well.
It was in the currency determination earlier in the year.
Thanks Jen, now to find a dealer selling a roll.
Another one?
These war anniversaries are just getting absurd. Once one round of 5 year anniversaries are over, the next one starts. 80 years since the war started, now its 75 since it ended and so on.
The remembrance tread mill. These veterans would nearly be all dead now. Even in the most extremest case of a 14 year old lying about their age in mid 1945 - they would be 94 today and even the average WW2 soldier born around 1920 would be 105 and 99% chance they would be dead, even one born in 1927 would only have a 20% chance of still being alive. And alive does not mean talking and active. It means lying in a bed or in a chair all day, incommunicado, drawling or on one of those breaving machines.
They did a 75th anniversary coin in 2020, now an 80th.
In the year 2649 it will be "Don't you dare forget the 710th anniversary of WW2 starting" and "remember the sacrifices your 26 greats grandfather made for the freedom of Trumpjinpingtalia.
Just another sign that the RAM is going down the same path as the Australian Post Office.
Fleece the collectors and fleece them hard.
I am sure too many of those brave young men who sacrificed everything to please rich and over powerful halfwits in 1914 and 1939, would not be happy to see endless rounds of junk NCLT and overpriced collectors hoohah trvialising their struggles.
Let me see 2026, so we have to have 110 anniversary of the Battle of Somme and 85th anniversary of Pearl Harbour. But we have a true biggie this year and don't any one dare forget the heroic 9/11 - expect mountains of commem coins, stamps, souvenirs, museum shows, movies, clothes and the world paying obesiance to the death of 2,700 people whereas the Americans have murdered at least 5 million in retaliation in Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Venezuela and any other country that displeases their ethnocracy.
Do you think Australia will issue a $1 or $2 coin with the 25th anniversary of 9/11 on it, official or a collectible Perth Mint one, Official seems unlikely with left wing Albo in, but under a right wing PM, it may have happened.
It's possible the Perth mint could produce a 9/11 commemorative, aimed at the yank market.
Every year they mourn the loss of 2,700 souls, but they murder an average of 22,000 in the U.S. alone.
Niue I reckon. Or C(r)ook Islands
Cook Islands issued quite a few in 2021, so you might be correct.
Nupe Nupatoru (My new funny name for Niue, as Nupe sounds similar, but its a tribe of Nigerian Africans) will, as they are controlled by the Americachi (There was an 80s Italian song called Canta canta Americachi, making fun of American music and Italians making it - long before Blackbox).
Powercoin which makes most of the Junque NCLT for Niue, Fiji and several Republique's d' Francophone of Afrique, are an American company and make all the star wars and Pokeyman coins.
I would be surprised if Aussie does though, not with Albo in power, if your libs were they may have. Even here in right wing NZ, we hate Trump as he keeps putting tariffs on us. We have one loud mouth career politician called Winston Peters, who is NZ's Pauline Hanson, as despite being a Maori, he hates all immigrants and loves conservative nationalism.
