This year marks the 60th anniversary of the Royal Australian Mint (the Mint), Australia’s national mint and sole producer of circulating coins for the country. The Mint officially opened in Canberra in 1965. Its first tasks were to produce distinctively Australian coinage and facilitate a smooth changeover from Australian pounds, shillings and pence to decimal dollars and cents. Australia’s decimal coins were introduced in 1966.

Today, the Mint also produces circulating coins for other countries, and manufactures a vast array of collector coins, investor products, medals, medallions, and tokens for domestic and international clients. As the custodian of the National Coin Collection, the Mint is uniquely responsible for collecting and preserving a representative record of Australian coinage for future generations. In recognition of its heritage value and special place in the nation’s history, the Mint building is a Commonwealth Heritage Listed site.
