A glorious union of Proof quality, pure .999 silver and vibrant full-colour, this offi cial Australian legal tender trio is notable for one particular characteristic – the

astonishingly small mintage. The Perth Mint has struck just 2,500 sets!

Honouring three of Australia’s World Heritage Listed sites – Fraser Island, Lord Howe Island and Kakadu – the 2013 $1 National Parks 1oz Silver Proof Trio captures the unique beauty of Australia’s natural environment with a stunning fusion of traditional numismatic sculpture and full-colour minting. Housed in a Perth Mint case, each 40.60mm coin is complete with a Certifi cate of Authenticity confi rming the absurdly low mintage.

With that mintage just 2,500, and these offi cial Perth Mint issues NOT AVAILABLE at the Perth Mint, you must act now!

In more than 80 years in the industry, there is perhaps one key element behind Downies success – our willingness to embrace the future, and to embrace change as we constantly strive to improve the level of service we provide to our clients. We have never been afraid to try something different, and it is Downies’ long-term pioneering approach that has led to our decision to experiment with the format of our traditional Money magazine.

Returning to the classic format of the early days of Money magazine, fi rst issued in 1988, and providing more pages to pack with our traditionally fantastic variety of coins and banknotes, we are confi dent that the compact, convenient new format will be welcomed by our clients. Increasing effi ciency and reducing waste, this change is also completely in keeping with our determination to reduce our ecological footprint – a determination that has seen us link up with Printgraphics, a printer that is among the most environmentally sound operators in Australia, and is offi cially accredited to ISO14001, the internationally recognised standard of Environmental Management.

We will be trialing this new format over the next month or two, and, as we have in large part made this decision for the benefi t of our clients, we would naturally love your feedback. Please visit www.downies.com/survey or email us at [email protected] and let us know what you think!

You will be impressed with the glistening Proof quality; you will be enticed by the massive 100g of pure .999 silver; you will be intrigued by the presentation – but you will be utterly blown away by the mesmeric sparkle of the gigantic, genuine diamond-like Swarovski Crystal embedded within this sensational new coin!

Undoubtedly one of the most eye-catching coins we have ever offered, this gargantuan legal tender issue is crafted from a whopping 100 GRAMS of pure .999 silver. Measuring an enormous 55mm x 85mm, the expansive rectangular fl an of this lavish release is dominated by a large, real crystal from legendary crystal-makers Swarovski. Measuring an imposing 25mm across and 36mm in length, the refractive qualities of this large, superbly crafted Swarovski Crystal must be seen to be believed. Go to www.downies.com for a sneak peek at this scintillating silver stunner in action!

We naturally thought that this ‘giant crystal’ concept was going to be really special, but this breathtaking coin has exceeded even our lofty expectations. Forming a fi ne setting for this luxurious legal tender issue, and enhancing the captivating, hypnotic sparkle of the crystal, each $20 coin is set in a case featuring a red LED Lamp.

With understandably rampant demand, however, that allocation is now virtually exhausted!

A must-have for those who secured any of the Perth Mint’s sensational Treasures of Australia $100 1oz Gold Proofs, we are delighted to be able to reveal the very fi rst coin in the equally splendid Treasures of the World 1oz Gold Proof Series!

Crafted from a full troy ounce of pure, prestigious .9999 gold, and underpinned by the Perth Mint’s most exquisite Proof quality, this unique Australian legal tender $100 coin celebrates the gemstone garnet. Known to humanity for thousands of years, and valued for both its beauty and its symbolic qualities, genuine pieces of this eye-catching red gemstone are found in the transparent locket set within the heart of this stunning 32.60mm 1oz .9999 fi ne Gold Proof.

Beautifully presented within an offi cial Perth Mint case, and accompanied by an individually numbered Certifi cate of Authenticity, this highly desirable Australian legal tender issue is also notable for the astonishing limited availability. Ensuring a mad scramble amongst passionate gold collectors worldwide, the Perth Mint has, somewhat surprisingly, restricted the mintage to just 750 coins.

With substantial demand expected from the European market, where garnet has been extremely popular for hundreds of years, Downies has received a tiny allocation of coins.

An affordable opportunity to enjoy this enchanting Australian legal tender program, the Perth Mint’s 2013 $1 Treasures of the World Garnet 1oz Silver Proof has caught the eye of collectors across the globe.

Crafted to impeccable Proof quality from a troy ounce of .999 fi ne silver, and highlighted by a see-through locket comprising pieces of genuine garnet, this unique, exclusive, crown-sized 40.60mm $1 coin is set in an offi cial case with a numbered Certifi cate of Authenticity confi rming the limited mintage of just 7,500.

Powerful evidence of the Royal Australian Mint’s ongoing quest to create inventive, fascinating, distinctively Australian collector coinage, Downies is delighted to unveil the spectacular new 2013 $5 Southern Skies Curved Pavo 1oz Silver Proof! Unquestionably among the most innovative, most inspired Australian coins of the year, there is no doubt that this spellbinding concave/convex Silver Proof will be one of the most sought after.

Following in the imposing footsteps of the 2012 $5 Southern Skies Curved 1oz Silver Proof – mintage 10,000 sold out at the RAM – this sparkling new Australian legal tender release is underpinned by the same key characteristics as its hotly pursued predecessor. Utilising minting technology that is employed by very few issuing authorities across the globe, the RAM has created a truly memorable, utterly unique tribute to Pavo – a constellation in the Southern Sky steeped in Greco/Roman mythology. Considering the originality of the concave/convex concept, the international demand for the 2012 issue and the stunning quality of this particular full-colour Australian legal tender coin, immediate action is recommended. Certain to be targeted by those who were quick enough to secure last year’s coin – and by those who missed out of course! – the mintage of 10,000 is unlikely to sate demand.

One of the most eagerly anticipated releases on the collector calendar, with Downies fi elding innumerable calls regarding the launch date, we are delighted to unveil the sparkling new 2013 Silver Proof Set – the Royal Australian Mint’s premier annual silver issue.

Struck to the pinnacle of Proof standard from pure, prestigious .999 silver, the 2013 Silver Proof Set comprises six coins,

from the 5c to the $2. Magnifi cent when struck to the fi nest possible quality, each offi cial Australian legal tender coin is adorned with its traditional motif, with the $2 created by Horst Hahne, and the 5c, 10c, 20c, 50c and $1 the work of legendary Australian numismatic master craftsman, Stuart Devlin.

Whilst all six coins are available separately on the Order Form – presented in offi cial RAM cases – the

individual brilliance of each immaculate .999 fi ne silver coin is signifi cantly enhanced when assembled as one single,

complete collection. Indeed, as all collectors will know, the worth of a complete collection is much greater than the sum of its parts.

A must-have for anyone with an appreciation of the fi nest that modern minting has to offer, the RAM has restricted the mintage to a mere 5,000 collections worldwide.

Arguably the most important release in Australian numismatics, the Royal Australian Mint’s Gold Proof Set issue represents the epitome of prestige, presentation and limited availability. The ultimate acquisition for those with a love of the unique beauty, purity and mystique of the world’s favourite precious metal, the 2013 Gold Proof Set is now available!

Struck to faultless Proof quality from .9999 gold, this lavish collection comprises six coins from the 5c to the $2, with each coin distinguished by the traditional design for its denomination. Housed within individual RAM cases, the six 2013-dated Gold Proofs are available either as single coins – please see the Order Form – or as a complete 6-coin set housed within six individual cases. Individually brilliant works of precious metal minting, there is no question that the six Australian legal tender coins move to a new level when united as one complete collection.

Notwithstanding that this is only the second Gold Proof Set issued by the RAM since 2007, and in spite of the growing market for Australian collector coinage, the RAM has resisted the temptation to increase the worldwide mintage of this luxurious, prestigious collection. One of Australia’s most exclusive numismatic issues, the worldwide mintage of the 2013 Gold Proof Set has been restricted to a mere 500.

Highly sought after, yet surprisingly affordable, the 1913–36 George V Defi nitive Stamp Collection is arguably the most critical element of Australian philatelics. The foundation stone of Australia’s national heritage, and the heart of every serious collection, this historic set is now A$120 off regular market price!

Delayed by debate and red tape, Australia’s fi rst stamp issue did not take place until 12 years after unity had been achieved at Federation in 1901! This procrastination ended in 1913, with the release of the young nation’s fi rst non-commemorative Defi nitive stamp. Bearing a kangaroo, Australia’s fi rst variety was soon joined by the George V Portrait type following its creation by the conservative Government in 1914.

From 1913 to 1936, these two designs were issued in a variety of colours and denominations – 39 in all. This complete 39-stamp collection includes a Fine Used example of each Defi nitive type from the 1/2d to the 5/- from 1913 until 1936. Housed in an attractive album, set in a separate slipcase and protective dustcover, the 14 Kangaroo and 23 George V types are all included. The Engraved 1914 1d and 6d (value A$120) are yours with our compliments!

An outstanding collector opportunity, the 1913–36 George V Defi nitive Stamp Collection is fantastic value-for-money at A$120 off market price.

� Comprehensive – includes 39 stamps from 1/2d to 5/- from 1913 to 1936

� Quality – each of these scarce stamps is in Fine Used condition

� Attractive – each set of 39 stamps is housed in a high-quality album

� Informative – each album provides extensive background on the stamps

An exclusive tribute to a crucial juncture in the history of Australian currency, with the limited edition set at just 500, this affordable presentation unites Australia’s last $2 note – carrying the Last Prefi x LQG! – with a Silver Proof version of the nation’s fi rst $2 coin!

Like its lower denomination $1 counterpart, the $2 note fell victim to infl ation, as well as the greater durability and cost-effectiveness of a coin. First seen in 1966, at the dawn of the decimal era, the issue of the last $2 note occurred in 1988, during the Johnston/Fraser signature combination. Indicating that the note found in this premium edition pack was among the last to roll off the presses, each Johnston/Fraser $2 is distinguished by the highly desirable Last Prefi x LQG! Like every First and Last Prefi x Australian note, this landmark Australian currency issue is scarce in Unc. The perfect complement to the $2 Johnston/Fraser Last Prefi x LQG, forming the perfect way to mark this momentous change in Australia’s circulating currency, this exclusive presentation also encompasses the fi rst date of the $2 coin series – crafted from precious metal! Struck by the Royal Australian Mint, and bearing a memorable design uniting an Indigenous Elder and the iconic constellation the Southern Cross, the nation’s fi rst $2 coin looks absolutely magnifi cent when crafted to Proof quality from sterling silver.

Extremely exclusive, with the limited edition set at a mere 500, these crucial ‘last’ and ‘fi rst’ legal tender issues are beautifully presented within an informative, individually numbered full-colour 244mm x 174mm pack. � Exclusive! Tiny worldwide limited edition restricted to a mere 500 sets!

� Features an Uncirculated example of Australia’s last $2 note – carrying the very last $2 prefi x, LQG � Includes the fi rst Australian $2 coin

– dated 1988 and struck to Proof quality from sterling silver!

First Jubilee Sovereign

Rare BU quality!

Among the lowest mintage dates of Australia’s Queen Victoria 1871-87 Young Head Sovereign Series, with the Sydney Mint’s combined 1879 St George and Shield Sovereign issue concluding at just over 1.3m coins, the 1879S St George Sovereign is extremely scarce today.Also notable as one of the highest cataloguing dates of the 1871-87 Young Head St George series, and naturally hotly pursued by sovereign collectors across the globe, we have a few examples of this undeniably important Sydney Mint issue remaining in stock – with each historic, 134-year-old,

22-carat gold coin available in strong Very Fine condition.

Generally, the very last Australian sovereigns of Queen Victoria are defi ned by great historical importance and undeniable beauty. Specifi cally, the dazzling Queen Victoria 1896M Sovereigns before you are defi ned by faultless Uncirculated condition. As good as the day they were struck at the Melbourne Mint, some 117 years ago, these exquisite 22-carat gold coins are all in strictly Mint state quality. Increasingly scarce in such a spellbinding state of preservation, each sovereign is underpinned by an alluring full mint bloom, and sharply detailed designs. Just a few left in stock!

The fi rst date of a short-lived series, this key Sydney Mint issue is among Australia’s most hotly pursued Queen Victoria 1887-93 Jubilee Gold Sovereigns.

In part driven by the ‘fi rst-of-its-kind’ status, demand for the 1887S Sovereign is also due to the scarcity of the date. The lowest mintage Sydney Jubilee issue, and 2nd lowest mintage Jubilee date overall, the 1887S had a mintage of just one million! Featuring the memorable, if controversial portrait by Sir Jeremy Boehm, and among the highest cataloguing dates of the 7-year series, we have just a few Fine to Very Fine 1887S Jubilee Sovereigns available.

A sensational opportunity for our clients, we also have a tiny number of the Queen Victoria 1896M Sovereign remaining in stock – each in lustrous, detailed, strictly Brilliant Uncirculated condition! The fi nal sovereign type issued during the record-breaking reign of Queen Victoria, the Veiled Head Sovereign is considered to be one of the Empire’s most beautiful coins. Distinguished by the last portrait of Queen Victoria, created by Sir Thomas Brock, as well as the timeless beauty of Pistrucci’s St George & the Dragon reverse, these designs look superb when found on 22-carat gold

sovereigns in the upper echelons of quality as here.

1oz GOLD PROOF

AU940

Arguably the most enthralling work of numismatic art ever to adorn a New Zealand coin, the 2013 Maori Art Series represents a powerful insight into the rich indigenous culture of the Land of the Long White Cloud – and a collector release of the utmost beauty, quality and intrigue.

The third issue in the extremely popular Maori Art Series, struck by the Royal Australian Mint, the 2013 release celebrates the koru – a pattern based on the unfurling silver fern frond that is integral

to Maori art and culture. The koru is depicted on the reverse of both the .9999 1oz Gold Proof and the .999 1oz Silver Proof, but it is the depiction of the Maori God of the Forest, Tane Mahuta,

that dominates. Struck to the Royal Australian Mint’s most immaculate Proof quality, this gripping, somewhat sinister reverse motif looks absolutely magnifi cent in both glorious gold and stunning silver.

The 2013 $10 Maori Art 1oz Gold Proof – struck from pure .9999 gold, and set in an offi cial case with a numbered Certifi cate of

Authenticity – instantly caught the eye of gold collectors worldwide. Indeed, the entire mintage of 250

has already been wiped out! Limited to a mintage of just 2,000, and also beautifully presented in an offi cial case with a numbered Certifi cate of Authenticity, the 40mm diameter 2013 $1 Maori Art 1oz Silver

Proof provides the chance for all collectors to enjoy this dramatic

piece of numismatic creativity.

No matter which coin sparks your interest, you will have to move like lightning. Our meagre allocation of the Gold Proof is just 10 coins, with a mere 100 of the Silver Proof in stock. With both breathtaking legal tender coins set to sell out at super speed, we must recommend immediate action.

A gripping work of numismatic art…

STRUCK BY THE ROYAL AUSTRALIAN MINT!

Struck to Royal Australian Mint Proof quality from a full troy ounce of .9999 fine gold, and set in a richly symbolic, hand-carved timber case, this prestigious 38.74mm diameter coin has a mintage of 250 – already SOLD OUT!
