2023 Mint / Proof sets

jens coins · October 28, 2022, 07:10:18 PM

Overnight the Royal Australian Mint announced the theme of the 2023 Mint/Proof sets.
Both sets will feature a $1 Coloured Vegemite themed design.

These coins will have the Queen Effigy on them.

The UK has started minting the first coins with King Charles II on them and are planning on releasing them in December.

You mean, I have one more set to complete my QE II set of coins? And I thought I was finished, waaaa

I think that Vegemite themed design is a missed opportunity for the last set of coins with QE II on them.

I thought that was a poor April Fool's joke.

No that the 2023 mint sets would still feature Queen Elizabeth II.

Purple Penny Facebook site had it up a few weeks ago to say that the 2023 sets had the Queen Elizabeth 11.

I'd assume everyone here gets the mint magazine

Is it just me or does anyone else find that mug in the top right corner a little bit eww.

Haven't had mine turn up in the post yet but it could be one of AusPost's non deliverable days in my area.
They only work every other day.

Fairly disappointed that RAM would think that commemorating Vegemite would be worth doing the year set.
I hope the coin smells and tastes like it to make it "all the better".

The RAM told me they have stopped sending the Mint Issues in the mail and you have to read it online.

gweidion · November 08, 2022, 05:31:14 PM

Well I got mine in the post today.
