If this was the USA it would be easy - a quarter and a nickel. However, we are in Australia, so it's all about a play on words. One of them is not a 10 cent coin so it has to be a 20 cent coin. The OTHER has to be the 10 cents. Our two coins adding up to 30 cents are therefore - A 20 CENT AND A 10 CENT COIN.
 
A 20 cent piece and a 10 cent piece. (One of them is not a 10 cent piece, but the other one is!)
 
The 2 coins are 20 cents and 10 cents.
One is not 10 cents but is 20 cents. The other is 10 cents.
