The Royal Australian Mint’s Year Set tradition continues in 2010 celebrating Australian circulating coin designs.

All six circulating coin designs are presented in the one set. (The Burke & Wills 20c and $1 commemorative coins are available within the 2 coin year set.) Stuart Devlin’s standard 5c, 10c, 20c and 50c coin designs were introduced with decimal currency in 1966 and are an important representation of the essence of Australia. The $1 coin which was later introduced in 1984 is an internationally recognised design as is the unique $2 coin, which entered circulation in 1988.

For over forty years Australia’s standard circulating coin designs have stood the test of time. Each of these coins is presented in the 2010 Six Coin Year Sets. Coins in the 2010 Six Coin Uncirculated Year Set are finished to a high quality uncirculated standard. The 'uncirculated finish' means they were struck with greater pressure than the circulating coins to improve the sharpness and detail of the design.
