2025 $2 80 Years On : Remembering the Second World War Coloured Premium Mint Roll

On September 1 1939, Nazi Germany's invasion of Poland set the Second World War into motion.

Two days later, Australian Prime Minister Robert Gordon Menzies followed Britain's lead and declared that Australia was at war with Germany.

Almost one million Australians served in the Second World War, joining the war effort primarily in the Mediterranean and the Middle East in 1940 and 1941, and increasingly in the Pacific after Japan entered the war in December 1941.

Women served as well, with women's branches of the Army, Navy and Air Force established in 1941.

By the time the war came to an end in September 1945, close to 40,000 Australians had lost their lives in the course of their service.

In honour of the courageous Australians who served in the Second World War, the Royal Australian Mint presents this 2025 $2 coloured circulating coin.

The coin features a wreath of red poppies - an enduring symbol of remembrance in Australia and other Commonwealth nations.

Surrounded by sculpted leaves, the eight poppies in the wreath represent the eight decades that have passed since the most devastating war in human history.

The coin reverse features a remembrance wreath consisting of eight red poppies.

Each coin's obverse features the Daniel Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III.

Struck by The Royal Australian Mint's circulating standard.

Rolled in The Royal Australian Mint branded paper with security sticker.

Each coin is issued as Australian Legal Tender.
