Heart and Soul of Australia - 2026 $1 Silver Proof Coin

The Coin Company is proud to present the Heart and Soul of Australia - 2026 $1 Silver Proof Coin by the Royal Australian Mint.                                     

The United Nations has designated 2026 as the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists (IYRP). To mark this momentous year, the Royal Australian Mint presents a striking new $1 proof coin.                   

Both in Australia and globally, rangelands play many important roles. They sustain biodiversity across their wide range of ecosystems and the native species they support. Plant cover across rangelands also helps to protect soils and absorb carbon. As well, rangelands contribute significantly to the economy through the agricultural, mining and tourism industries.                                                 

IYRP also celebrates the people who live on rangelands. In Australia, this encompasses many communities around the country, including significant numbers of First Nations people. Those who manage the millions of livestock grazing on the rangelands are known as pastoralists. Modern practices and technological innovation combine with traditional knowledge developed over generations to enable improvements in land management and stewardship.

This 2026 $1 Silver Proof Coin beautifully depicts an Australian rangeland scene. With a limited mintage of 5,000, it would be an excellent addition to any collection.
