No. Only the 1988 and 1989 Australian 2 Dollar coins have HH on them. HH is the initials of the designer (Horst Hahne) of the reverse side of the coin.

All years of the Australian Two Dollar coin are potentially still in circulation and are therefore worth Two Dollars, unless they are Mint Uncirculated or Proof coins.

The initials do not make the coin worth any more or less.

An Australian 2 Dollar coin is a relatively new addition to the currency, replacing the 2 Dollar note in 1988. Uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to $6 AUD.

They are still in circulation, so unless they are part of a proof set or as previously described, they are worth 2 Dollars.

HH is the initials of the designer of the Australian Two Dollar coin, Horst Hahne. His initials only appear on the 1988 and 1989 issue Two Dollar coins and you do not get a prize for finding one.

A reputable coin dealer will be able to advise a more accurate quotation.
