A tawny frogmouth chick nests on the 5c, and a Tassie devil gets up to mischief on the $2. The 2026 Aussie Bubs Six Coin Uncirculated Baby Year Set brings back the Royal Australian Mint’s baby animal characters for another year, continuing the Mint’s long-running annual baby sets.

Each denomination carries its own Aussie Bub. A leafy seadragon floats across the 10c, a leatherback turtle burrows into the sand on the 20c, a sleepy koala settles on the 50c and a cheerful quokka smiles from the $1. All six appear together on a special token, with new colours for 2026. It is one of the few sets with a custom reverse on every denomination, which gives it appeal for collectors as well as families.

What makes it a keepsake is the booklet, with space to add baby’s photo, birth details and family tree. Presented in a new fold-out carton, it is a thoughtful 2026 baby coin set for a newborn, and one of the more personal Australian baby gifts for a christening, naming day or first birthday.
