    best to combine both bags (red and orange), to bring it $3/coin.

    Hey everyone,

    Just got my pack of 5 x Anzac coins today... Just wondering if they are error coins?

    3 of the coins aren't centered in the middle of the coin as shown and appear to be mistruck.

    And 1 of the coins, the red is overlapping over the edges.

    Any help appreciated! :)

    Apologies, pictures taken on my phone so they're not very good

    $25 for the red $2 counter stamped is a bit expensive isn't it?
    They were $10 at the show

    Typical, just after I muck around ordering a heap of reds.

    I could have combined them. Oh well, time to get some more reds with my oranges.

    I keep on doing that over and over and over its worth it

    I remember breaking my back trying to get them for $75 per a bag

    No, it appears that this C Mint mark version is only in "special themed packaging" for $12.50 each.

    Quite a few are popping up on ebay at about $130 a roll. I haven't seen any cheaper

    Downies has mint rolls for $99 at the moment (red Lest We Forget)

    They may sell out quite fast.

    Does it matter which way the coins are facing in a mint roll? The product page says:

    "Please note that each genuine 25-coin 2015 $2 Lest We Forget RAM Mint Roll is a 'heads/heads' roll, with no 'heads/tails' rolls available."

    What's the significance of that?
