Australia Dorothea Mackellar - Dawn 2025 50c Stamp & Coin Cover
$27.00 AUD
Unit price /
Unavailable
Certain to inspire a whirlwind of demand, this official Australia Post tribute to Dorothea Mackellar and her poem Dawn is headlinedby a not-issued-for-circulation ‘off-metal’ 50c – struck from aluminium-bronze, NOT copper-nickel!
Capturing the essence of the Australian landscape through her evocative, vibrant poetry, Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968) is one of Australia’s most famous poets. Tapping into the collective soul of the nation, Mackellar’s poetry still resonates today, and she undoubtedly deserves her place in the pantheon of Australian literary icons.
An exclusive tribute from Australia Post, with only 7,000 issued, this beautifully illustrated Stamp & Coin Cover unites a $1.50c stamp with a 50c coin from the Royal Australian Mint. Enshrining Mackellar’s inspired poetry in official Australian legal tender, Dawn 50c is a triumph of numismatic art. Sought after for its aesthetic quality alone, it is important to note that this coin is a not-issued-for-circulation type AND an ‘off-metal’ striking.
When offered as an individual coin in March, the Dorothea Mackellar Dawn 50c sold out at Downies in the blink of an eye, leaving many empty-handed. A must-have – especially for those who missed out before – we expect our tiny allocation of this new Stamp & Coin Cover will be wiped out in record time.
