| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central design depicting a stylised rendition of the Australian Vietnam Forces Memorial in Canberra, composed of two angled stone pylons intersected by an elliptical ring, all rendered in a clean, modernist graphic style above a horizontal base line. The service dates 1962 - 1973 are inscribed below the memorial device. The circumferential legend FOR SERVICE - AUSTRALIA'S VIETNAM FORCES arcs around the upper portion of the field, while the denomination ONE DOLLAR is placed along the lower border, flanked by two raised dots. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued in 2003 to mark the 30th anniversary of Australia's withdrawal from Vietnam, this dollar belongs to the RAM's ongoing program of commemorative circulation strikes. Australia committed over 60,000 personnel to the conflict between 1962 and 1972, making it the largest deployment of Australian forces since the Korean War. The decision to conscript through a birthday ballot — first drawn in 1965 — meant the war cut unusually deep into civilian life and generated domestic opposition that lingered for decades after the last troops came home.
Veterans returned to little formal recognition; a welcome home parade did not take place until 1987.
