The 2026 $2 Coin Roll: 25 Uncirculated Coins Straight from the Royal Australian Mint

Australia's $2 coin has been in circulation since 1988. Most people see them daily, fish them from the bottom of bags, or lose them in the car console. What they rarely see is a $2 coin that has never been through anyone's hands at all.

That's the point of this roll.

The 2026 $2 Circulating Coin Roll from the Royal Australian Mint contains 25 uncirculated coins in the standard aluminium bronze finish. The coins come wrapped in Mint-branded paper, ends packed heads-to-heads or tails-to-tails, exactly as they leave the Mint floor. Total face value is $50. You're paying $95 AUD for the year-dated uncirculated condition — coins that won't look like this once they enter general circulation.

Why a Coin Roll?

For collectors building year sets, the circulating roll is the practical option. No premium finish, no presentation case, no limited mintage at a collector price. This is about having a dated run of standard-issue coins in the best possible condition.

The 2026 coins carry the Daniel Thorne effigy of King Charles III on the obverse — the first Australian circulating coins to feature Charles after the transition from the Queen Elizabeth II effigy used since 1966. That makes 2026 a year worth noting in any Australian coin collection.

Each coin is aluminium bronze, 20.5mm in diameter, 6.60g. Standard circulating specification.
