I think coloured $2 coins are the most hoarded circulating coins, even by people who ordinarily aren't interested in coins. Even those silly Wiggles coins will be hard to find in another year or so!

Good luck finding those earlier ones!

Thanks Princetane & Ozleigh,

Biggest problem with noodling $2 coins is that your $100 note doesn't get you many coins.

Noodled $650 worth of $2 with some good success.

If you look amongst these coloured coins I found today you will spot a 2014 green remembrance and a 2015 orange "in Flanders Fields".

The other new find was the 2018 green Commonwealth Games coin.

Day 25

Noodled $850 worth of $2 coins

Found the usual bunch of Tokyo Olympics and Wiggles coins but I'm sure everyone is sick of the sight of them by now so I won't bother showing them.

The only coin I found which I am still looking for was this 2018 Eternal Flame

The-Big-Noodle:-Australian-2-Dollar-Coins

If I were to put all the coins I have found this last month up for sale on ebay this coin would probably fetch the most:
The-Big-Noodle:-Australian-2-Dollar-Coins

Yep, it's one of those "super rare HH coins with multiple errors" aka common as dirt coin run over with the lawn mower.

Still having trouble finding the pre-2018 coloured coins.

Total number of two dollar coins noodled: 2275
Number of different coins found: 64
Number of coins still to find: 16

I would put this on ebay at a $10 buy it now and the bunnies and dreamers selling theirs at $1000 would have a fit!

Don't forget "Ultra MEGA RARE - Amazing Spanish Flower UNIQUE one of a kind ERRA 1988 hh SUPER RARE $2 1ST year historic and extremely RARE mega ERROR! - WHAT A BAHHHGANNN!!"
