For those that may have missed it: MEDIA RELEASE - THURSDAY 5 OCTOBER 2023 KING CHARLES III TO SOON APPEAR ON AUSTRALIAN COINS 'The Albanese Government is today releasing the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III which will soon start appearing on circulating coins produced by the Royal Australian Mint. The new effigy of His Majesty King Charles III is the official Commonwealth Effigy designed by The Royal Mint in London with Royal Approval. The first coin to have the King's effigy will be the $1 coin. The coins will start appearing in banks and cash registers across the country before Christmas. The other denominations will be progressively released in 2024, based on bank demand. The first collector and investment coins bearing the King's effigy are expected to be available for sale early next year.' https://www.ramint.gov.au/publicati...ralian-coinsAs sel_69l has stated, it would stand to reason that the first King Charles III $1 coins would be dated in the year that they were minted, and in the year of his coronation, 2023.

I was expecting someone to be showing off their KC3 dollar coin by now. I fear William V will be on the throne before any of these coins show up down here in Tassie.

On ABC radio yesterday, Leigh Gordon from the RAM said they have minted 3.5 million 2023 KIng Charles $1 coins . Must be minting the other 6.5 million coins during 2024 with the 2023 date?

A lot can happen in two weeks.  Said without a straight face, of course.

Got one in my change today in Tassie. Unable to post a photo at the moment, but seeing as there have been plenty minted, I thought I'd just respond.
