Australian 2 cent coins minted from 1984 onwards were all minted at the Royal Australian Mint Canberra and have no mintmark.

From 1966 to 1968, the mintmarks are minor variations to the claws on the Frilled Neck Lizard (or Dragon).

Canberra Mint - All claws are sharp.

Melbourne Mint - Blunted third claw on left foot.

Perth Mint - Blunted first claw on right foot.

From 1969 to 1983, there is no way of telling, although they were minted at either Canberra or Perth Mints, the Melbourne Mint having closed in 1968. Packaged sets of mint uncirculated coins may have it written somewhere on the packaging.

In 1981, approximately 71 million 2 cent coins were minted at the Royal Mint Wales. These can be identified by looking at the obverse. The legend will be closer to the rim of the coin than coins minted at either the Canberra or Perth Mints.
