The Australian 20 cent coin was first introduced with decimalisation on 14 February 1966 when it replaced the pre-decimal Australian florin, to which it is equal in size and mass. The original reverse design by Stuart Devlin has not been changed since its introduction. The denomination is occasionally used by both the Royal Australian Mint and the Perth Mint to issue collector coins, which are legal tender in Australia - such as this one. This coin is part of a series of Royal Australian Mint releases featuring children's books in partnership with the Children’s Book Council of Australia, and is dedicated to the twentieth anniversary of Where Is The Green Sheep. Created by Mem Fox and Judy Horacek, the book has intrigued generations of readers as they search for the green sheep while being entertained by the antics of its friends. The coin features a new illustration of a reading sheep by Judy Horacek. These coins are Non-Circulating Legal Tender (collector issue). No coins of this type have been released into circulation. | ||||||
