Comment

This coin was issued by the Royal Australian Mint from 2015 to 2017 as part of a series of 26 different $1 Coloured Reverse Frosted Uncirculated Fine Silver (.999) Alphabet Coins which capture the love of Australian animals and the alphabet. They were issued individually in capsules in a plush case.
 
Aluminium-bronze versions of the coin were also issued and could be collected individually as issued in a card or included as part of the Baby Mint Set. Hidden objects are found on the coins.

The silver coins were issued in 2015 with a Green "J", 2016 with an Orange "J" and 2017 with a Pale Blue "J"

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it is part of a unique series featuring the letters of the alphabet, with each letter being represented by a different coin. This series was created by the Royal Australian Mint as a way to celebrate the diversity and richness of the English language. The "J" coin, in particular, features a design that incorporates the letter J in a creative and visually striking way, making it a standout piece in the collection.
