This proof set is a vital part of the biggest coin program in Australia.
Demand for memorabilia was in a boom period leading up to the and during the Centenary of Federation, coins sets were particularly popular as they were officially produced by the Australian government.
All in all, there were ten different commemorative fifty-cent coins; nine different commemorative twenty cent coins and one commemorative one-dollar coin issued in the Centenary of Federation commemorative coin series, easily the biggest stimulus the Royal Australian Mint has given to Australian numismatics since the introduction of decimal currency.
The 2001 proof set built on the popularity of the coloured flag coin in the 2000 proof set and included not one, but two coins featuring colour in their reverse designs.
The 2001 proof set is also one of the few whose value on the secondary market has stayed well above issue price - not bad for an item that's been out for over half a decade now.
The coins, case, outer shipper and certificate are all included and remain in excellent condition.
