- Joint release by Australia Post and the Royal Australian Mint

Skippy and Sonny Hammond return to the Australian bush on this illustrated stamp and coin cover. The coloured fifty-cent coin places their portrait within a television-shaped frame, with the familiar yellow-and-red Skippy logo across the lower design. On the cover, bushland scenery and a photograph of the pair extend the television theme beyond the coin itself.
Released jointly by Australia Post and the Royal Australian Mint, this 2020 PNC marks fifty years since the series’ finale. Its $1.10 stamp and pictorial first-day cancellation from Kangaroo Valley, NSW bring a postal counterpart to the twelve-sided commemorative. Limited to 6,000 covers, this presentation pairs Australian television heritage with numismatic and philatelic detail. Add the Skippy anniversary PNC to your collection at FORTYMILLION.
