Issued as a tribute to the nurses who have served and continue to serve in the Australian Defence Force, the unique Australian legal tender coin found in this PNC depicts two nurses from WWI and WWII, attending a wounded serviceman. A poignant work of numismatics art, a silhouette bugler is seen in the background field.

A fitting presentation for the nurses who have dealt with the brutal realities of conflict from the sick and injured to the dying and the dead, each PNC is housed within an illustrated envelope featuring the official Australian Army Rising Sun Badge 60c stamp. Postmarked for the first day of issue, each 2012 ANZAC Day PNC features Australia Post’s Seal of Authenticity and official number.
