    Hi guys,

    I was just looking through my change this morning to get my coffee and noticed a $2 coin with a mark on it, it looks like "HH".
    Do you guys know anything about it? Just curious of there is any history behind that.

    That's interesting - thanks!
    Had a look on other coins, could not find the mark.
    Maybe only on that year?

    just did a google search
    and apparently the HH was done only on the 1988 / 89 two dollar coins
