Comment

The Perth Mint issued three half-ounce coloured silver proof 50c coins each year between 2014 and 2018 to make a 15-coin collection called the 2014-2018 15-Coin ANZAC Spirit 100th Anniversary ½oz 50c Series. This was the second coin in the fifth and final set of 3 coins issued in 2018.

This image depicts the full set of 15 coins.
