One Dollar 2024 Bluey, Coin from Australia - detailed information

The one dollar coin circulating denomination (written as $1) was introduced in Australia in 1984, replacing the earlier banknotes. The original reverse design by Stuart Devlin featuring five kangaroos - known in Australia as the "Mob of Roos" design - has not been changed since its introduction.

The denomination is also used by both the Royal Australian Mint and the Perth Mint to issue an extensive range of collector coins, which are legal tender in Australia - such as this one.

This commemorative coin was issued to celebrate the animated TV series One Dollar 2024 Bluey, and features its main character.

Bluey is produced by Ludo Studio for ABC Kids (Australia) and co-commissioned by ABC Children’s and BBC Studios. Financed in association with Screen Australia, Bluey is proudly 100% created, written, animated, and post produced in Brisbane Queensland, Australia, with funding from the Queensland Government through Screen Queensland and the Australian Government.

A global phenomenon, the show follows the adventures of Bluey - a lovable, inexhaustible Blue Heeler dog - who lives with her Mum, Dad and her little sister Bingo. Bluey uses her limitless energy to play games that unfold in unpredictable and hilarious ways bringing her family and the whole neighbourhood into her world of fun.
