20c - 49 out of 71,928 coins noodled = 1 in every 1,468 coins noodled (all newspaper ANZAC coins 2015-2018) 50c - 5 out of 136,718 coins noodled = 1 in every 27,344 coins noodled (2 were newspaper ANZAC coins 2018) $1 - 125 out of 110676 coins noodled = 1 in every 885 coins noodled (50 were Woolworths coins 2017-2019) $2 - none out of 33,530 coins noodled (I did find a 2012 red poppy long before I started keeping stats)
These stats do not include mint set only coins found only in official annual RAM mint sets.

Not sure if the last 3 are actually NCLT 2017 Possum Magic, 2018 Commonwealth Games and 2019 Mr Squiggle are Woolworths coins released in sets with the circulating $2 coloured coins. Yes they are NCLT. 2020 QANTAS coins are very low mintage circulating coin.

Possum Magic, Commonwealth Game and Mr. Squiggle coins are actually given in change from Woolies too, so are they truly NCLT coins?

Thought I might show some of my more interesting NCLT in circulation finds, starting with this Last ANZACS coin. A,B,C,M,S mint marked coins were issued in 1999, but this is the non mint marked 2000 coin which was only available in the sought after PNC which still fetches around $50.

Another PNC only coin. The Sydney Swans were AFL premiers in 2012 but this coin was minted before the Grand Final so does not feature the winning team's name. Mintage of 15,000. Another 2012 coin with "Sydney Swans" printed below the premiership cup and the denomination "1 Dollar" on the obverse was issued in a coloured folder.

2012 wheat sheaf $1 C mint mark. This design featured on Australian threepence coins of George VI and Elizabeth II, which in turn was featured on the obverse of the 2016 change-over 10 cent coin.
