2010 150th Running of Melbourne Cup 50 Cent Coin in card
The Melbourne Cup has become such an integral part of Australian culture that it is almost impossible to imagine the country without it. Since 1861, the world’s greatest 3200 meter handicap horse-race has been run every November.
Struck to the uncirculated standard, the Royal Australian Mint Celebrates the 150th Running of the Melbourne Cup.
The reverse of this uncirculated coin captures the pivotal moment of riders and horses crossing the winning post.
