2020 $1 Qantas Centenary 1/2oz Silver Proof Coin

The Coin Company is proud to present 2020 $1 Qantas Centenary 1/2oz Silver Proof Coin produced by The Royal Australian Mint.

This stunning 20201/2 oz Fine Silver Proof Coin has been created in celebration of the centenary of Qantas — Australia's own 'Flying Kangaroo'. Qantas staff past and present, aviation enthusiasts and coin collectors will all treasure this memento of our pioneering air service.

The story of Qantas is a story of connection. From a tiny company of two aircraft and three staff, it started by allowing graziers to connect across some of Australia's most difficult terrain. Through its connections with the Royal Flying Doctors, Qantas helped to bring medical aid to Australians in remote areas. During the Second World War, it maintained air contact with the United Kingdom and its technology and staff carried out vital air services.
