Australian citizenship symbolises our unity as a nation. It represents a commitment to Australia and its people, the values we share and our common future. For anyone who has made the citizenship pledge of commitment, it’s a timeless memento representing your bond with Australia.

The Coat of Arms on the reverse of the coin consists of the badges of six States of the Commonwealth on a shield enclosed by an ermine border signifying Australian Federation in 1901. The crest of the Arms, including a seven-pointed star, appears above the shield, which is supported by a kangaroo and an emu, which are native Australian animals. The Coat of Arms represents the federation of the states and the unique wildlife of Australia.

The 2026 Australian Citizenship coin portrays the Commonwealth Coat of Arms, accompanied by the words AUSTRALIAN and CITIZENSHIP, and year-date. The design also incorporates The Perth Mint’s traditional ‘P’ mintmark.

A meaningful keepsake for new Australians, the collectable acknowledges the value such citizens bring to a nation devoted to community, diversity and acceptance.
