Released as part of the Royal Australian Mint's centenary commemorations surrounding the First World War, this piece belongs to a broader series examining the cultural mythology built around Anzac service. The "Anzac Spirit" framing was a deliberate editorial choice by the mint — drawing on a term that had become institutionalised in Australian public discourse long after the Gallipoli campaign itself, particularly following the 1990s and early 2000s resurgence of Anzac Day observance that reversed decades of declining attendance.
Copper-nickel 20-cent commemoratives of this period were struck for general circulation, meaning surviving examples in pristine condition are genuinely harder to source than mintage figures suggest.
