2021 50c Supercars Holden HT Monaro GTS 350 Coin & Stamp Cover PNC.

Teams moved quickly to put the sleek new 1968 Holden Monaro on the race track, and Melbourne racer Norm Beechy couldn't resist the homegrown two-door coup.

The HT-series Monaro GTS 350, with its 6.0-litre Chevrolet V8 engine, was cheekily dubbed the 'Trans-Aus" Monaro, with reference to its Australian build compared to Moffat's Trans-Am Mustang.

Built with covert assistance from the Holden factory, in 1970 it became the first Australian car to win the championship.

Issued as Australian legal tender, the uncirculated cupro nickel coin is housed in a beautifully designed card with a circular window revealing the coin's reverse and obverse designs.

The stamp and coin cover features an illustrated envelope featuring the 1970 Holden HT Monaro GTS 350. 

It also includes an Australian $1.10c commemorative stamp and is post marked First Date of Issue 19 January 2021, Bathurst NSW 2795.The coin's obverse features the Jody Clark effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the 2021 year-date and the monetary denomination
