Haven't found any in circulation myself but managed to exchange at face value a 2013 Coronation $2 that a friend got in change from a vending machine

Seen three or four in circulation, only kept two of them. All of them were the green 2014 ones. My brother found one of the purple ones and gave it to me, but I never saw one in the wild myself.

I have found the red poppy $2 (two of them), and the purple $2, (two of them together), but not the green ones.

20c commemoratives are relatively scarce for me as well.

With the help of my children I have managed to lay my hands on 2 green $2s over the last week or so. My brother has also found a purple $2 for me in the same period so things are looking up.

My wife works in a bank so if there are any in town I generally get them, only got probably 5 or 6 purples before they disappeared out of circulation, the green ones however I have piles of and they are still coming

I got a green in circulation, that's about it. I bought the red, orange and purple. They go for a high price together.
