New Release September 2024 – Bluey Dollarbucks.

The Royal Australian Mint unveiled the first Bluey commemorative coin collection in June 2024 – for real life! Everyone’s favourite blue heeler, Bluey, now features on her very own set of Dollarbuck coins. The first collection to hit the shelves with a pop of colour and imagination included Bluey, The Heelers, and The Grannies.
The next EQL release for September is here so don’t miss your chance to secure Bluey Dollarbucks with brand new designs! (Enter via the link in red below)

- 2024 $1 Fine Silver Coloured Proof Coin
- 2024 $1 Privy Mark Uncirculated Coin – 10 designs to collect
Royal Australian Mint CEO Leigh Gordon said the Bluey limited-run program has given the Mint an opportunity to re-engage with the wider Australian community that may have previously bought products such as the Wiggles, Mr. Squiggle or Play School.
“This is the Mint’s classic storytelling and social culture commentary through coins,” Mr Gordon said.
“We hope that through this new Bluey program we are cultivating the coin collector of tomorrow. What better way to start your child’s or grandchild’s coin collection, than with a Bluey coin?”
BBC Studios Director of Brands & Licensing ANZ Kate O’Connor said,
“Bluey is set to shine on this new Dollarbucks coin collection, marking the first-ever Bluey coins. These fun and colourful coins encapsulate the playful essence of the beloved TV series, making them a timeless treasure for fans and collectors alike. And be sure to keep your eyes peeled for the hidden long dogs!”
