Ten cent - 1985 to 1998 - Price Guide
Ten cent Australian coins showing an Lyrebird on reverse were released for the first time in circulation on February 14, 1966. Lyrebirds are most notable for their superb ability to mimic natural and artificial sounds from their environment, and the striking beauty of the male bird's huge tail when it is fanned out in courtship display. Lyrebirds have unique plumes of neutral-coloured tailfeathers and are among Australia's best-known native birds.
