$2 Currency Crossroads Last Paper Note First Coin Limited Edition Pack

A victim of inflation, the Australian $2 paper banknote followed its $1 counterpart into the pages of history when, in 1988, it was withdrawn from circulation. More durable and more economical, the new aluminium-bronze $2 coin took the place of the $2 note during Australia's bicentennial year. Symbolically significant as well as cost-effective, the nation's new $2 saw a return to a focus on indigenous Australia through currency absent since the withdrawal of the $1 note in 1984. Comprising the last $2 note united with the first $2 coin, this special edition honours a crucial moment in Australian currency history.
