gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3831 Posts	Posted 09/08/2020 08:38 am Just thought I'll compile the $2 coins that I pulled from circulation. I forgot to take photos of the 2016 decimal coinage and 2019 invitus games. I'm sure I found a Borobi the other day - probably lying around somewhere. My personal 2 favorite coins are these: Rest of the coins can be seen here. http://gxseries.com/numis/australia...2_dollar.htm Feel free to share your pictures!

Mr T Pillar of the Community Australia 2180 Posts	Posted 09/09/2020 07:00 am Nice. I've got a few from circulation but not many. I can't remember which but one seemed to be more common than the rest. Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 09/09/2020 09:12 am I have managed to assemble a complete set in duplicate of issued for circulation only $2 colored commemorative coins. All taken from circulation at face value. Some of them have come from Woolworths, on or nearly after the day they they were issued. Collection is live and growing, inasmuch as new coins are added as they are issued. Same for all other commemorative coins of all the other denominations as well, since the start of decimal coinage in 1966. Started the collection in my teenage years. You end up learning a lot about Australia's heritage, if you study the historical background behind each issue. Report this Post to the Staff

Princetane Pillar of the Community 4628 Posts	Posted 09/04/2021 3:23 pm I am crazy about these too and all of them up to 2021 Olympics except the 2 Aborigine themed ones. Besides what is shown, I love these two's designs. The coin on the right is a stunning mix of colours and drags your eyes in. From another thread, the coin at bottom right is also a real stunner. To me these are the pinnacle of the $2 series and since then, I feel the quality has declined a bit. Yes the new coins have more colour, but its just splashed, these are intricate designs and suggest real movement and colour. Report this Post to the Staff
