This captivating two-dollar coin, resplendent with vibrant colors, forms an integral part of the Royal Australian Mint's seven-coin series commemorating the 60th Anniversary of Mr Squiggle and Friends. This particular coin showcases the whimsical character Bill Steamshovel.
Generations of Australians have fond memories of growing up with Mr Squiggle and his charming companions: Blackboard, Bill Steamshovel, and Gus the Snail. Mr Squiggle, residing on the Moon, embarked on delightful visits to Earth in his rocket, captivating children with his gentle whimsy and extraordinary talent for transforming their squiggles into imaginative pictures using his pencil nose.
Crafted by the talented cartoonist and puppeteer Norman Hetherington, the beloved children's television series Mr Squiggle graced ABC screens from 1959 to 1999. At the zenith of its popularity, Mr Squiggle stood as one of Australia's most cherished children's programs, annually receiving a multitude of squiggles from enthusiastic children across the nation.
This commemorative series comprises four enchanting $2 coins designated for circulation, two $1 collector's coins, and a special one-cent coinâa denomination that had ceased circulation in Australia by the time of issuance.
At the coin's center, the reverse design showcases Bill Steamshovel, an iconic character from the ABC children's show Mr Squiggle. The character's name, "BILL," is prominently featured above the delightful illustration. Encircling the central design is a multi-colored ring, predominantly adorned in blue and green hues, infusing the coin with a playful and vibrant aura. Above the central illustration, the coin proudly declares its value and denomination as "TWO DOLLARS." Separated by whimsical imagery, the show's iconic logo, "Mr SQUIGGLE," adds a touch of nostalgia, celebrating the enduring magic that Mr Squiggle brought to countless Australian households.
