| Additional information |
The "Great Aussie Coin Hunt" was a Royal Australian Mint circulation campaign launched in 2019, releasing 26 aluminium bronze dollars — one for each letter of the alphabet — into general circulation across Australia. The silver proof versions were struck simultaneously for collectors, with each letter paired to an object or animal of Australian cultural significance. The campaign was explicitly modelled on the engagement logic of the 2000s Scrabble dollar series, which had driven unprecedented public interest in coin collecting among non-hobbyists.
"N" in the series was assigned to the numbat, the endangered marsupial and official mammal emblem of Western Australia.
