Local NewsOnce again a long line of keen coin enthusiasts greeted our Coin Shop staff on the morning of 1 January 2010. All eager to be one of the first to mint their very own 2010 'C' mintmark $1 coin. Congratulations to Bruce Mansfield for being the first person to press the first 'C' mintmark coin for 2010 and to the next 99 collectors in line who all received special certificates. Making a coin on the visitor press will be the only way of securing a single 'C' mintmark coin in 2010. Alternatively collectors can purchase the coin as part of the, new format, four coin set. Coin EventsAustralia Day was also celebrated here at the Mint as we unveiled a 50c circulating rolled coin and a silver proof version. This coin celebrates all the great things about being Australian and living in this great country. Our thanks go to the National Australia Day Council for their assistance in making this release such a great success. It’s the only official coin of Australia Day 2010, watch out for the circulating coin in your change soon. Coin ShowsAt the time of going to print for this Mint Issue, the Royal Australian Mint again attended the Berlin World Money Fair and Perth ANDA. The 'P' for Perth privy mark coin was in high demand and we thank the people of WA for their hospitality. Finally...2010 will certainly be another busy time and with the exciting coin releases we have planned you are sure to find more than a few surprises. In 2010 the Made to Order coin will replace the Subscription Coin (in name only). The name change will clarify to collectors that this product is made to the orders we receive. This may alleviate some customer confusion regarding the time frame between order and receipt and the need for an upfront payment, which is necessary to formulate the total coin production.
