    Has anyone found a 2012 coin in their change yet? Seems odd I haven't found one. Don't even recall finding a 2011

    Occasionally I get some from 2011 (but not many). Haven't encountered 2012 coins yet either...

    I've een few '11s and '12s in my change.
    With all the extra money printing going on, I would have expected heaps of shiny new coins out there :lol:

    You get more bang-for-buck by printing $50'S and $100's

    havn't come across any '12's either and was thinking about it the other day. I'm always looking out for $1 2000's as well which seem to be scarce...
    Getting lots of '10's though..

    This explains why every time I use cash, they have no change for me.

    Of all the countries in the world I've been to , Australia you seem to end up with the most amount of coins in your pocket .

    The least coins I've seen is in China. They seem to hate coins, as a tourist you often get handfuls of coins dug out from some hidden place. China aslo seems has paper equivalents of of the coins. Having a wallet full of paper is easier than paper(plastic) and coins.

    checked my pocket have a very warn 2011 50c coin.
