Celebrate one of Australia’s most impressive express steam locomotives with the 2025 Steam Giants South Australian Railways 520 Class No. 520 ‘Sir Malcolm Barclay-Harvey’ 50c Coloured Uncirculated Coin from the Royal Australian Mint. This exciting collectible forms part of the Steam Giants – Australian Rail Heritage collection, honouring the powerful locomotives that shaped Australia’s railway history.
The South Australian Railways 520 Class locomotives were designed as prestigious express engines, combining speed, strength, and striking visual presence. No. 520 ‘Sir Malcolm Barclay-Harvey’ became one of the most recognisable steam locomotives in South Australia, admired for both its performance and streamlined appearance.
The Steam Giants collection highlights seven of the largest steam locomotives to operate across Australia, representing each state as well as the Commonwealth Railways. These mighty engines symbolised the rapid progress of rail transport as networks across the country competed to build larger and more powerful locomotives.
The vibrant coloured design on this coin reflects the locomotive’s iconic livery and captures the excitement of witnessing these enormous steam giants thunder past with heat, noise, steam, and power.
The Steam Giants series is a tribute to the engineering achievements that helped connect Australia by rail. Featuring an eye-catching coloured design and celebrating the legendary 520 Class locomotive, this collectible 50c coin is an excellent addition to collections focused on Australian decimal coins, train memorabilia, and Royal Australian Mint releases.
