There are no mint sets or whatever where you can get a guaranteed uncirculated example of the old portrait 2019 coins (as far as I can tell).

As I understand it, the effigy in Australia was changed about halfway through 2019.
What coins are are rare and what are common, depends entirely on the number minted of each effigy / denomination combination. Mint won't release mintage numbers until mid second half of year 2020.

Gotya!
I should say there was no set containing the new portrait in 2019. But the point remains. Quote:

I got myself some though I haven't opened them yet. The ones I got in previous years were okay but the heavier coins (50c, $1 and $2) tend to get pretty bag-marked in the bags unfortunately.

Here are the "five ages of Queen Elizabeth II" as shown on the obverse of our 5 cent coins. Note the "old" and "new" versions of the 2019 coins I found it difficult to photograph this group of really shiny coins  Squire

The fifth Effigy as shown above is actually the sixth Effigy or 6th Portrait. although the Vladimir Gottwald 5th Effigy did not ever appear on a 5 cent coin due to it being a one off on the 2000 Royal Visit 50 cent. I know it is confusing but the effigies go like this. Gillick - 1st portrait of Queen Elizabeth II facing right wearing a laurel Machin - 2nd portrait of Queen Elizabeth II facing right wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara Makleouf - 3rd portrait of Queen Elizabeth II facing right wearing the King George IV State Diadem Rank-Broadley - 4th portrait of Queen Elizabeth II facing right wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara Gottwald - 5th portrait of Queen Elizabeth II facing right wearing the Girls of Great Britain & Ireland Tiara. Clark - 6th portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II facing right wearing the King George IV State Diadem and the Victorian Coronation Necklace. Not sure if you guys have ever seen this coin it is a beauty with all 6 portraits as used on Australian coinage of Queen Elizabeth II. It is the reverse of a Tokelau $5  Mike

If I was in charge of the mint I wouldn't have used the new portrait till 2020 dated coins. However as you may well suspect nobody has ever felt the need to leave me in charge of the mint.
