$2 2021 Indigenous Military Service Mint Roll

Official Royal Australian Mint Roll

Despite restrictions in the 1903 Defence Act preventing those “not substantially of European origin or descent” from enlisting, thousands of Indigenous Australians volunteered to serve the nation that denied them the rights they were fighting to defend.

Once accepted for service, individuals often experienced a sense of friendship and equality that was absent from civilian life, with access to training, education, travel and equal pay.

These rolls have been issued in Royal Australian Mint brown paper with an official holographic sticker and struck with a limited mintage of only 10,000 rolls.
