Reading and seen pictures of another $2 coin being distributed through Woolworths stores but I can't find anything about an official release date or the cost of the carded coin.

One chap on another coin forum has 25 of the new carded $2 coins up for auction.

I went out earlier tonight to two Woolworths stores and they knew nothing about the coin.

Does anyone here know a thing or two about the coin?

This is the ''Wallabies'' coin Mister T mentioned in the Quantas coins thread.

The coin was announced in currency determiantion 4-2019; ''R67''

As triggersmob has pointed out to me it's most likely because of the Rugby World Cup 2019 beginning on 20-Sep-2019.

As Rugby seems to be a quite popular sport in Australia I expect that RAM/Woolworth will be dispensing enough coins for all of us collectors.

I certainly hope so, Ralf. Will definitely be checking to see if they
are circulation coins, or just carded coins.

Got up early and secured my requirements, (2), from the Woollies at Deer Park.

I am happy chappy.

At least the carded coins are at a reasonable price.

check your carded coins for peeling paint.
Some rough ones out there.

Managed to get mine today. 
Non carded coins from the till.

As expected the $2 coins and folders and bags have been listed on thieveBay and Facebook even before release day
