2026 $2 The Last Post Coloured Uncirculated Coin - Premium Roll - AVAILABLE TUESDAY 10TH NOVEMBER 2026 0830 AEST

The Royal Australian Mint commemorates the Last Post – a bugle call occupying a significant place in Australia’s military and commemorative traditions – with this 2026 coloured $2 coin release.

Originally used to signal the end of a soldier’s day, the Last Post is now an integral part of military funerals and remembrance services. Familiar to generations of Australians through Anzac Day and Remembrance Day ceremonies, its distinctive notes provide a poignant moment to contemplate the courage and sacrifice of those who have served.

The 2026 $2 coin design depicts a bugler sounding the Last Post before a war memorial at sundown. Musical staves and bars radiate outward like sound waves, while their arrangement is reminiscent of the setting sun. Musical rests incorporated into the design symbolise the silence that follows the Last Post and its enduring association with those who have gone to their final rest.

Dusky oranges and deep purples feature prominently in the central colour print, evoking the hues of twilight and complementing the solemn theme of the coin.

This Premium Mint Roll contains 2026 The Last Post $2 coloured coins presented in official Royal Australian Mint-branded wrapping, complete with a holographic security seal – an attractive format for collectors of Australia’s popular coloured circulating $2 coins.

The Last Post release follows the Royal Australian Mint’s Dawn Service program released in April 2026, with both programs recognising remembrance traditions deeply ingrained within the Australian consciousness.
