Celebrate 200 years of Australia’s first official coinage with this 2013 $1 Holey Dollar And Dump PNC, released to commemorate the bicentenary of the historic 1813 Holey Dollar and Dump.

This postal numismatic cover features a 2013 $1 Holey Dollar and Dump coin, issued in partnership with the Royal Australian Mint and Australia Post. The design pays tribute to Governor Lachlan Macquarie’s famous solution to Australia’s early currency shortage, where Spanish silver dollars were punched through the centre to create two separate coins: the Holey Dollar and the Dump.

The original Holey Dollar was valued at five shillings, while the centre Dump was valued at 15 pence, making them some of Australia’s most iconic early colonial coins. This 2013 PNC is a great modern tribute to that important moment in Australian numismatic history.

With a limited mintage of 15,000, this is a fantastic addition for collectors of Australian $1 coins, Royal Australian Mint releases, Australia Post PNCs and historical commemorative coins.
