Australia 1993 Uncirculated Mint Coin Set Landcare
Obverse: Elizabeth II to right, legend around
Reverse: Circulating coin designs
Mintage: 84,784
The only way you can ever get a 20 cent coin dated 1993 - they weren't put into circulation!
Australia has been producing mint sets ever since decimal currency was introduced in 1966. The coins in mint sets are the same as those seen in circulation but are in perfect condition.
The Landcare / Water Is Life commemorative one-dollar coin didn't resonate with collectors when it first came out - they weren't particularly hard to get from circulation, the reverse design wasn't seen as inspiring and the theme wasn't one that the public particularly warmed to.
As the dollar mintmark coins have become more popular though, values of the Landcare dollars have risen over time.
As if that wasn't enough, you'll never find a 20¢ piece dated 1993 in your change, because they were only ever put out in the mint sets.
This means the mint sets will be much tougher to get in years to come - a lot of them will be broken by collectors just wanting the 20¢ coins inside them.
The coins and sleeve are all included and remain in excellent condition.
