Description
On the evening of September 16, 1956, crowds gathered outside department stores and in homes across Australia to witness the momentous event when TCN Channel Nine flicked into life with the famous words “Welcome to Television” uttered by Bruce Gyngell.
To commemorate 50 years of Television the Royal Australian Mint has released a one dollar silver proof coin.
In the 50 years, TV has become the most popular and fastest means of getting up to date news and entertainment.
This coin is to celebrate the Australian way of life and will be popular with all.
The unique design of this coin is something special and is beautifully packaged and comes with a numbered certificate.
The coin has a limited mintage to only 12,500
