The “Lost Boys of Gallipoli – Golden Five Crowns Commemorative Coin” is a stirring tribute born from the legacy of courage, innocence, and tragedy that defined the ANZAC experience during World War I. Designed to honour the thousands of underage boys from Australia and New Zealand who falsified their age and enlisted to serve, this commemorative coin captures a chapter of history too often overlooked. Many of these young lads, driven by ideals of glory and duty, met their end on the blood-soaked ridges and gullies of Gallipoli. The coin pays homage not just to their sacrifice, but to the emotional toll of war on those who were barely old enough to shave, let alone shoulder a rifle. Each of the six boys represented on the coin stands as a symbol for the countless others whose names and faces remain lost to time. Their youthful bravery remains etched forever in our collective memory.
The Lost Boys of Gallipoli commemorative coin is an exquisitely crafted tribute, struck to a high standard of quality and detail. Measuring 65mm in diameter, this Five Crowns collector’s edition coin is richly finished in gleaming gold-plated layers. Its reverse showcases six finely engraved portraits of real underage ANZAC soldiers who perished during the Gallipoli campaign, with their names, ages, and service details delicately inscribed. Above them, the haunting phrase “They Remain Forever Young” captures the tragic finality of their sacrifice, while beneath their image, the solemn declaration “Lest We Forget” underscores the gravity of their youthful heroism. The obverse bears the Five Crowns denomination and a design symbolising remembrance and honour. Presented in a deluxe display case with a Certificate of Authenticity, this limited-edition coin serves as both a collector’s masterpiece and a meaningful tribute to the lost boys who paid the ultimate price for our freedom.
