I still don't think you can get any dollarbucks for yourself!

On Monday, July 12, NSW Police received a report that 63,000 Bluey-themed $1 coins had been stolen from a warehouse in Wetherhill Park.
They featured images of Bluey cartoon characters and were set to be released in September, with police saying the haul of 63,000 coins was worth more than $600,000.
That's some illicit drugs "street value" bullshit going on there.

  They were always meant to be collector coins - not circulated. The plain ones were meant to be the cheapest at $30 for 10.
  They are of course valid currency and can be used to buy things. You'd just be mad (or using stolen coins) to do it.
  
  I'm glad I don't collect things
