Coin & Mint News™ opens the first of this year’s ‘Remarkable New Issues’ segment, in partnership with CoinsWeekly, by highlighting three radically different new collectible issues that are notable for one reason or another.

As technologies and minting techniques develop suppliers and mints are producing ever more advanced coins and precious metal products. To that end, Coin & Mint News™ is beginning a new segment in partnership with CoinsWeekly to highlight new collectible issues that are notable for one reason or another.

The Royal Canadian Mint has produced a $2 commemorative circulation coin to celebrate Inuit Nunangat, the Inuit homeland, a vast area that encompasses land, water, and ice and a source from which Inuit draw unity, strength, resilience, and identity.

ABC Mint has launched a five coin series entitled ‘Untamed Landscapes’, celebrating the natural beauty of Oceania.

To commemorate 100 years of the Swiss Franc in Liechtenstein, CIT has released a new coin design crafted in smartminting® Ultra Deep Relief. The coins depict a three-dimensional coloured model of the Rhine Valley with topographical accuracy on the reverse, symbolising the bond between Liechtenstein and Switzerland.

The Royal Australian Mint (RAM) has produced a coin to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the National Aboriginal and Islander Day Observance Committee (NAIDOC) being formed entirely of Indigenous peoples.

During most Olympic and Paralympic Games, there have been a variety of products released to commemorate the occasion and celebrate the athletes taking part. The 2024 Paris Games are no different, and here we cover a selection of commemoratives minted to mark the event.

In commemoration of its 50th anniversary, the Central Bank of the Bahamas has issued a painted version of the country’s 25 cent coin into circulation. The coin is the first painted circulation coin issued by the central bank, and the first circulation coin in the world to feature colour on both sides.

The Royal Mint has signed an exclusive distribution deal with RARCOA to grow its commemorative coin business in the US, and which is projected to turnover £100 million over the next three years.

This year marks the 80th anniversary of 'D-Day' and several European mints have produced coins to commemorate the occasion – amongst them The Royal Mint, Monnaie de Paris, and the Royal Dutch Mint.
