Description

The 1997 Australian Proof Coin Set is a premium collector release from the Royal Australian Mint, featuring the complete range of Australian circulating coin denominations struck to an exceptional proof finish. This sought-after set includes the commemorative $1 coin honouring Sir Charles Kingsford Smith, one of Australia’s greatest aviation pioneers.

Known for his record-breaking flights and contributions to aviation, Kingsford Smith played a pivotal role in Australia’s aviation history. The commemorative dollar coin celebrates his achievements and adds a unique historical element to this annual proof set.

Each coin has been carefully struck using specially polished dies and blanks, creating the sharp frosted designs and mirror-like fields that collectors expect from Royal Australian Mint proof issues. Presented in official mint packaging with a Certificate of Authenticity, this set is both a beautiful display piece and an important part of Australia’s numismatic history.

Whether you’re collecting Australian proof sets, commemorative dollar coins, or aviation-themed releases, the 1997 Proof Set is a standout addition to any collection.
