The 2005 Australian One Dollar coin commemorates the 60th Anniversary of the end of World War 2. The image is from an often played piece of newsreel footage of celebrations in the streets at the news of peace following the Japanese surrender. The newsreel shows the unknown man skipping down the street amongst other celebrating people, waving his hat in the air. The euphoria and relief of peace after almost six years of war.
Option 1 What a mess of a coin this was. An Australian 2005 1 Dollar coin is a "90th Anniversary Gallipoli" Commemorative which was issued as a noncirculating coin in a folder or a mint set. Mistruck or not, it is worth at least twice its original purchase value. The reverse design features a soldier blowing a bugle. There is every possibility that there were mistruck coins as the Royal Australian Mint (RAM) had "Mint Your Own" presses at various sites of national significance around the country. There are two coins known to have no mint mark. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation. Option 2 An Australian 2005 1 Dollar coin is a "60th Anniversary of Peace, WW2" Commemorative which, uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to $3 AUD. They are still in circulation, so unless they are part of a proof set or as previously described, they are worth 1 Dollar. The reverse design features a man celebrating the end of the war. There were 31.788 million minted. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation.
The coin is a 2009 Sacagawea Dollar, date and mint mark are on the edge of the coin. The coins is face value.
