| Additional information |
The Great Aussie Coin Hunt series was a Royal Australian Mint circulation campaign designed to drive public engagement with coinage — the kind of program that mint administrators use to arrest the long decline in cash handling among younger demographics. The third installment, issued in 2022, assigned a letter of the alphabet to an Australian cultural noun, with "H" landing on something drawn from the national vernacular.
The silver proof variant was struck for collectors who had no intention of hunting anything at a supermarket till.
