2022 $1 The Great Aussie Coin Hunt 3 - J for Jumbuck Uncirculated Coin in Individual Card
Are you on the hunt for one of the Great Aussie Coin Hunt 3 Coins?
We're celebrating Australia from A-Z with a bunch of bonza Aussie icons to collect.
Collect the J $1 coin. J is for Jumbuck – used informally to refer to a male sheep, but perhaps most recognised for its use in Banjo Paterson’s famous song, Waltzing Matilda.
In the song, the jolly swagman steals a jumbuck that has come to drink from the billabong. The swagman is then pursued by police and the sheep’s owner, but jumps into the billabong rather than be captured.
It is thought that ‘jumbuck’ comes from Indigenous language Gamilaraay and that it stems from the Gamilaraay word ‘dhimba’
Each coin is housed in a card and envelope with the corresponding letter.
Each coin is issued as Australian legal tender.
