Just purchased this afternoon.
Australia Two Dollars 2013 Coronation Commemorative and circulating.
The only reference to it I can find says that the colorized version has a 'C' mintmark (to the right of the crown on the reverse) and that uncolorized circulating pieces have no mint mark but the dot.
So can anyone out there tell me what's what?

From the 2014 McDonald's catalogue...

5,000,000 No colour. Released into circulation
500,000 Coloured reverse. No mintmark.
10,000 Coloured 'C' mm, Al/br NCLT Unc

Personally, I have only seen the coloured coin in circulation.

I took two colourized Coronation commemoratives from circulation, about a month ago. They are reasonably hard to find.
They are NOT the World's first issued for circulation colourized coin design.

The coin pictured is identical to mine, and has no mint marks.

Interestingly, I have never seen an UN colourized Coronation commemorative two dollar coin in circulation. Perhaps, Greg may have his wires crossed, when he reports 5,000,000 UN colourized coins were issued into circulation, or he was given the wrong information by the RAM.

I think the no colour is just the standard aboriginal elder design.
