2023 heralds 35 Years since the introduction of Australia's $2 coin in 1988.

The $2 coin was first introduced into general circulation in 1988, Australia's Bicentenary year.  Replacing the $2 note due to its short circulatory lifespan, the size and format of the $2 Coin was determined after considering the needs of the visually impaired community, security requirements, and a desire to avoid shaped coins, amongst many other considerations.

Since its introductuion, the designs that have appeared on Australia's circulating $2 coins have honoured many historical and culturally important Australian Stories.  The first of many commemorative circulating $2 designs was released in 2012 with the striking Remembrance Day Poppy Coin.
