Bonus 2019 Australian Coins to look out for in your change

For information about ALL the coins in circulation, check out the Pirate Guide:

So far, people have found the following circulated 2019 coins - 20c, and of course the $1 with the A, U and S. While the Mint indicated that they’ll slowly transition to the new portrait over 2019, it’s hard to know if we’ll get mintages for the 2019 coins with each portrait

But there is also the 2019 mint set with the old portrait, so there are at least some copies of each coin with the old portrait (although the $1 and the 5c have special designs commemorating the moon landing).

But these coins are not intended for circulation. So with the 20 cent already found in circulation, we know that there could be 2 versions of the 20c. Will there be others?

So keep an eye out for 2019 coins with the old portrait - it’s possible that there will be 2019 coins with both the old and new portrait on them, and that could make them more collectible!

And please put a comment below if you’ve found any 2019 coins, whether it’s the old or new portrait.

Happy hunting
