Australia Post Launches The Great Aussie Coin Hunt 3

Coin collectors are in for a real treat with The Great Aussie Coin Hunt 3.

Australia Post’s all-new set of 26 $1 coins, produced in partnership with the Royal Australian Mint, celebrates iconic Australian moments and quintessential emblems of Australian life.

The Great Aussie Coin Hunt is back with an all-new set of 26 $1 coins celebrating iconic Australian moments and quintessential emblems of Australian life.

Each coin represents a different letter of the alphabet, with Australians hunting for cockatoos, the Great Ocean Road, Irukandji jellyfish, Luna Park Melbourne, surfing and vanilla slice as well as well-known home-grown brands such as Darrell Lea and R.M. Williams.

Australia Post Executive General Manager Retail, Catriona Noble said the new collection would bring a sense of fun and adventure to people with the help of their local Post Office, where the limited edition coins will once again be available.

“The Great Aussie Coin Hunt is our most successful collectables program and this year we hope it helps to excite Australians about not only collecting each of the unique $1 coins but also discovering some hidden-gem locations and stories in their very own backyard,” Ms Noble said.

“With many of the 26 coins celebrating destinations across each of our eight states and territories, collectors and adventurers of all ages will be spoilt for choice.”

Royal Australian Mint CEO, Leigh Gordon said he was thrilled to be releasing this new set of $1 coin collectables in partnership with Australia Post.

“Following the enormous success of the last two Great Aussie Coin Hunts, we are excited to once again give families around Australia the opportunity to participate in this fun and engaging national coin hunt,” Mr Gordon said.

Families and kids of all ages are encouraged to head to their nearest participating Post Office or online to purchase the limited edition coins.

Anyone who purchases the full set will have a chance to go into a daily draw to win $1,000.

Avid hunters are encouraged to visit aussiecoinhunt.com.au for more information on each coin’s letter, and full terms and conditions for the daily giveaway.

There is also an interactive map including road trips and travel ideas aligned to each of the 26 coins.
