    Apologies, I haven't really been paying attention but I got some of the SBSS when it came out and realised that I had picked up duplicates so I figured I would sell one of them and just keep one for my set. That's when I realised that I didn't have duplicates but two different rounds. Are these from the different sides of the SBSS saga or are they from the same mint but just with different dies. If they are different makers, does anyone know which side made which coin?

    Thanks

    Thanks, I will keep hold of them both in that case.

    Is there a webpage with all the different types, might as well do the lot in one go.

    not sure about a list, I'm sure there is one somewhere though.

    I would hold onto the MM ones, smaller mintage, they shut up shop just as they were trying to ship these coins.
    At the time BB was the only dealer with the balls to take an order of any kind of volume, and it ended up being a very small double order along with the cannabis rounds if memory serves me correctly.
    There wouldn't be too many floating about in Australia.

    Cheers, I will check the cannabis rounds next then I guess.

    I got them from different places, one lot from Maggie and one lot from GoldPelican. At the time I was kicking myself for putting in two separate orders but you can never really go too far wrong buying silver.

    You could spend a good part of you life trying to figure out all the different SBSS variety and errors and mints and sizes and blah blah blah......totally discouraged me from the series..........enough is enough....just make some coins, why all the confusion
