2025’s Coin Craze Is Here — and Demand Is Sky-High
From beloved TV icons to solemn tributes, the Royal Australian Mint’s 2025 releases are setting the collector market alight.
Every year, a handful of coins dominate conversations and sell out within hours.
In 2025, two releases — Bluey Christmas and the Red Poppy Wreath — are leading the charge, with premium coin rolls following closely behind as investor favourites.
If you’ve been waiting for the right time to add a standout coin (or a whole set) to your collection, this year’s lineup delivers both emotional value and serious scarcity.
1️⃣ Bluey Christmas 2025 Collection — Family Fun Meets Collectible Gold
The nation’s favourite pup returns for the holidays with two highly anticipated releases:
2025 $1 Bluey Christmas Decoration Coloured Uncirculated Coin
-
Mintage: 125,000
-
RRP: $20 AUD
-
Composition: Aluminium bronze with coloured festive design
-
Finish: Uncirculated
2025 $1 Bluey Christmas Fine Silver Proof Coin
-
Mintage: 10,000
-
RRP: $89.95 AUD
-
Composition: 99.9% fine silver
-
Finish: Proof with coloured design
The Bluey series has built a cult following among both collectors and parents.
Last year’s edition sold out in record time, with resale values quickly doubling.
With the 2025 drop, history looks set to repeat itself — limited numbers, massive demand, and universal appeal.
2️⃣ Red Poppy Wreath 2025 Collection — Honouring History, Driving Demand
Eighty years since the end of WWII, this collection captures Australia’s enduring respect for those who served.
2025 $2 ‘C’ Mintmark Coloured Uncirculated Coin
-
Mintage: 100,000
-
RRP: $18 AUD
-
Design: Eight poppies forming a wreath — one for each decade since WWII ended
2025 $2 Fine Silver Proof Coin (Coloured)
-
Mintage: 10,000
-
RRP: $90 AUD
-
Composition: 99.9% fine silver, premium packaging
These Poppy coins have become synonymous with strong aftermarket performance.
The original 2012 Red Poppy $2 is now one of Australia’s most valuable modern coins — and collectors see the 2025 version as the spiritual successor.
Demand from both traditional numismatists and new investors is already overwhelming pre-orders.
3️⃣ Premium Coin Rolls — The Investor’s Secret Weapon
Coin rolls offer something unique: scarcity and quantity.
The 2025 $2 Red Poppy Wreath Premium Roll contains 25 uncirculated coins, factory-sealed by the Royal Australian Mint, with a total run of only 15,000 rolls worldwide.
Why collectors love them:
-
Authentic, untouched coins direct from the Mint
-
Perfect for long-term storage and investment
-
Sell individually or as full rolls for maximum flexibility
With limited release and broad demand, these rolls often appreciate rapidly once retail allocations close.
Why These Coins Are Dominating 2025
-
Low Mintage: Every coin listed here falls well below Australia’s 150k “low mintage” benchmark.
-
Emotional Storytelling: Bluey delivers joy and nostalgia; Poppy coins deliver meaning and remembrance.
-
Proven Value Growth: Previous releases in both series have doubled or tripled in value on secondary markets.
-
Balanced Appeal: Equally suited to new collectors and experienced investors.
These releases define what modern numismatics is about — cultural resonance with a financial edge.
