Comment
This NCLT release by the Royal Australian Mint is Australia's first ever coloured 5 cent coin. It is part of a two coin set and has been paired up with a coloured 20 cent coin. Both coins commemorate 25 years of the "Bananas in Pyjamas" segment of the Australian children's television series "Play School". The two coins are frosted uncirculated and are packaged in coin capsules that are placed in a children's book type folder.
