Comment
This coin was released into circulation by the Royal Australian Mint in 2013. It is the second $2 coloured coin put into circulation by the RAM. It celebrates the 60th Anniversary of Queen Elizabeth the 2nd's Coronation in 1953. The coin pictured above is the "C" Mintmarked NCLT coin as mentioned below.
An Uncirculated version with the "C" Mintmark was released in a folding collector Coincard. These are now fetching very high prices on the secondary market.
