Amazing.
Just heard this news report.
When I was in primary school, in the mid 60s, one of the school excursions was to Canberra, Australia's Capital. It was a real adventure, we stayed in a motel overnight. While there we visited Parliament House, The Australian War Memorial, and the Royal Australian Mint, amongst other places.
Tonight I hear a news report that the Royal Australian Mint has opened to the public for the first time.
What were we school kids, chopped liver?
Unfortunately they don't give free samples...

I remember going in the late 70s/early 80s with my Grandfather. That wasn't even a school trip.
I went there in the 1980's as well. I have a brochure in the car from the last trip to Canberra from the Mint - we wanted to take the kids, but didn't make it due to lack of time, but it is definitely open.
Maybe they opened on a weekend for the first time? I seem to remember it only being 9-5, Mon to Fri.
Did you hear that report on the ABC?
Hi guys
I heard it on free to air, non-taxpayer funded.
Welcome back, Richard!
