Released by the RAM  & Australia Post in May 2026 into circulation as change for a cash transaction at 3,500 Post Offices Australia wide.

 

“Bluey” is an Australian animated preschool television series which premiered on ABC kids in 2018. The show follows Bluey, an anthropomorphic Blue Heeler puppy who is characterised by her abundance of energy, imagination and curiosity about the world. 

 

This coloured “Bingo” circulation coin could be added to the other five Bluey $2 coins issued in a special tube that included an album to store them all in for $34. 

One in ten of the Tubed Set of five coins had an exclusive coloured version of the Bluey “Sleepytime” coin.
