2015 Royal Australian Mint Alphabet Baby Mint Set

Coins have long been a traditional gift for key moments in someone’s life. As objects which are used and prized in so many different ways, they have inherent nostalgic value for many people.

For this reason, specially-packaged coins produced and marked in a significant year are a lasting memento of life’s special highlights.

For parents and children alike, the year of a child’s birth is perhaps the most meaningful date of all, making baby sets a perennially popular gift item.

The Royal Australian Mint’s annual baby sets have historically been housed in packaging reflecting themes from a wide range of treasured childhood memories.

In 2015 the theme is the alphabet, featuring an "ABC" coloured token with Australian animals accompanying the regular six circulating coins.
