My general assumption, for Australian $2 coins that "look wonky", is that it's most likely a counterfeit coin, rather than some kind of mint error.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

I think it looks like a lot of other $2 coins. Just checked a 2001, 2003, 2015, 2017 and a 2018. They all look to have a slightly "wonky" "D". I hadn't noticed that before - good pick up.
