    The fact that the edge of the plants seems not to have been disturbed by the depression around the edges definitely makes it seem like the error was at mint before the die struck the coin for the last time and not afterwards by a kid with a hammer and a round metal tube.

    I would definitely have it looked at.

    I have finally found a red $2 poppy coin in my change late last week.

    But sadly, some of the red dye has "peeled off". I think some other bloggers here have had the same experience.

    24 million minted if I recall correctly. Nothing too special but people might be hoarding them like the 1977 50c, which also had a late mintage but was (and is) hoarded

    Found a 1977 Swiss Franc coin in the receipt container of a Myki machine. Someone must have put it in and not taken it back when it was spat out.

    Due to high mintage figures

    Circulated : no ( but good for the kids to understand what the coin symbolizes )

    Uncirculated : yes

    Please note: people collect for different reasons, but if planning to make $$$ then maybe consider collecting some of the circulated varieties with a lower mintage.
    The following is a link to RAM mintage figures, hope it helps.
