Today I found in my change...............

Don't know .. books very high in price though.

1968 is a good year across just about the whole range, from 1c - 20c .

 

Anyway .. back on topic.

Today I got a really nice 1982 Commonwealth Games 50c .. lots of luster left too.

Plus a better (better than I had) Weary Dunlop 50c , and a nice 2010 Celebrate Australia Day 50c.

 

I managed another 1993 50c yesterday, along with a few poppies

 

I got two 50 Cent pieces, the commemorative AISTISAASITA; a 2010 ATO Centenary 20c;

 

Found a second AIATSIS 50c today. Definitely no sign of the 2014 remembrance $2 in circulation yet though.

 

Today I found 8 iaitsis coins. Slowly building up the numbers

 

wow, wonder if there are more in your neck of the woods? Pretty scarce in Sydney I reckon

 

Can someone post an image of the AIATSIS coin?

 

Here it's is.

is the unprinted AIATSIS worth anything above the face value? i have a few from the Syd ANDA show couple of weeks ago.

 

Hi,

in the secondary market at the moment it seems to go for $3-$4 per coin, if you buy bulk it goes down to about 3.00 x face (3 x .50c = $1.50)

the key is to get them in Uncirculated condition.

in Sydney its tough to find them, i suspect we have too many old coins in the state thus why we do not see the new coins often, it goes to other states.

Just a Heads up we got told from the Royal Australian Mint Yesterday the coloured version of this coin is SOLD OUT

hope this helps

James

 

Thanks James, we are not getting new coins because 50c is worth as much as 5c here in Syd... :|

 

I got this 1978 10c today. Would anyone like to give an opinion on it? Sorry for the crappy iphone pictures. And the non-numismatic language as well.

The head side is almost flat with the rim and lettering nearly non existent.

On the other side, the rim is deep and sharp like a knife-edge with virtually nothing visible in a ring around the outside. Only the zero and some of the detail are visible in the centre.

The edge has no reeding and a rounded profile.

It's pretty dirty. Looks to me like it's been buried.

 

a badly scratched/sanded 10c?

 

It very possibly is, but it's the same dia and thickness to other 10c coins. I don't have any scales to weigh it.

 

Hooked this Coming Home War Commemorative 20c with a nice rim ek

This is a known error, have seen one at IS WRIGHT

Pretty cool but nothing beats big dick Emu ek -- best error ever?

It will be interesting to see what those circulated 72's go for ..

 

Hubby found this in his change, and hes very impressed with himself. (he is easily entertained.)

 

^ And rightly so, that is a great score. These were uncirculated only right? Though this one is not, it would still have some value to it.
