Does anyone have a coloured $2 coin and a UV light handy? Based onĀ https://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=410851� it seems like the paint may glow under UV light.

I have the Aussi $2 up to 2019.

The yellow and skyblue paint on the Squiggle $2 glows under UV light (365nm), as on the 2018 Eternal Flame $2.

I can see no ''glowing'' at the other $2 that I have. Neither can I see nor confirm the ''splattering'' on the Possum coins that I have.

Oh neat - I might need to buy a UV light and check it out.
