A truly scarce cased pair of coins released as part of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Game coin program.
Sydney played host in September and October 2000 to the world's biggest sporting spectaculars, the Olympic Games, declared "the best Games ever" by IOC President Juan Antonio Samaranch.
The Sydney 2000 Olympic coins have been the most enduring collectibles of the entire games for four reasons:
- They were produced by the Australian government;
- They were limited edition;
- They feature superb quality & presentation;
- Each coin was made from solid, pure Australian gold or silver.
The Perth Mint released 16 different silver coins as part of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Game coin program. Coins were sold individually and also as a complete set of 16 coins.
A very small number of coins were relased in two sets of 8 - one set contained each of the coins released in the Cultural series, the other contained each of the coins released in the flora and fauna series.
A much smaller number again were released in pairs like this - this is the first such pair of coins we've handled since the games took place nearly two decades ago!
