| Additional information |
The 90th anniversary of the Gallipoli landings in 2005 prompted an unusual volume of commemorative output from the Royal Australian Mint, this dollar among them. ANZAC commemoratives from this period walk a fine line between genuine historical acknowledgment and institutional overproduction — mintages were high, collector fatigue was already a documented concern by the mid-2000s, and many pieces moved straight from mint rolls into binders rather than pockets.
The aluminium bronze composition matches the standard circulation dollar, which allowed this piece to pass freely as legal tender — a detail that complicates census tracking for circulated survivors.
