This Australian Women's Weekly mint coin set is close to selling out
A Delicious Piece of Australiana: The AWW Birthday Cake 2025 Ten-Coin Collection
The AWW Birthday Cake 2025 $1 Ten-Coin Collection from the Royal Australian Mint is heading toward selling out.
We have it available at the original RRP, even though scalpers online have it at inflated prices. Ours comes with the $2 coloured coin already placed in the folder.
This set pays a heartfelt homage to an undisputed icon of Australian childhood: The Australian Women's Weekly Children's Birthday Cake Book.
Released a few months ago, it was a huge hit. We have picked up all remaining stock from the Mint.
For generations, this colourful book has held a cherished place in kitchens right across Australia. It represents a source of countless memories, from carefully selecting the most ambitious design as a child to the shared joy of parents proudly presenting a homemade masterpiece at a birthday celebration. In 2025, the book marks its 45th anniversary, and this uncirculated coin collection is the perfect way to capture that enduring sense of nostalgia.
This meticulously presented collection features ten distinct $1 uncirculated coins, each celebrating one of the book’s most favourite and recognisable cake designs. Collectors will be thrilled to rediscover the whimsy of the Rubber Ducky, the elegance of the Dolly Varden, the cheerful presence of the Cuddly Koala, and the mechanical charm of Robert Robot and the Tip Truck. Other featured designs include the Swimming Pool, Humpty Dumpty, Candy Castle, and the Racing Track, completing a veritable feast of iconic imagery.
To enhance the appeal of this commemorative set, each collection generously includes a BONUS $2 Coloured Coin already carefully placed within the folder—a lovely extra detail for collectors.
The official product issue for this delightful collection is strictly limited to 50,000 units, making it a highly desirable piece of Australiana. Furthermore, dedicated collectors should be aware of a very special chase coin: one in every ten collections will feature the coveted Choo Choo Train design in place of the standard Racing Track coin. This scarcity introduces an element of excitement for those hoping to secure the rare variant.
The Royal Australian Mint has also shown a commendable commitment to reducing waste, an effort reflected in the packaging, with the coin tubes not featuring a plastic seal. We believe this professional consideration for the environment is a welcome detail for today's conscientious collectors.
This collection is not merely about currency; it's about owning a tangible piece of shared cultural history. It serves as a beautiful tribute to the imagination, family tradition, and the simple, enduring pleasure of a truly special birthday cake. Secure your own piece of this nostalgic colourful celebration while stocks last.
