10. Are 1c & 2c coins still legal tender?
Yes, 1c and 2c pieces are still Australian legal tender, but they are not considered as 'currency' (or, money that is officially released for circulation). This means that you can take your old 1c and 2c coins to the bank and exchange them for currency totalling the same face value.
