eBay bargains thread

These are a few comments about this somewhere on SS, but I cannot remember the location.

The Perth Mint "currency determination" documents (Currency (Australian Coins) Amendment) have not listed a new BoP for over 12 months.

 

Thankyou, will look into it further...

the remaining proof coins may attract a premium in future if it is a discontinued series and a cracking design... the mintage is 2500!

 

160

R11

A design consisting of a circular border and partially obscuring the border is a representation of two birds of paradise perched on a branch and the following:

(a) “AUSTRALIAN BIRD OF PARADISE”; and

(b) “1oz 9999 GOLD”; and

(c) “JM”;and

(d) “P”; and

(e) a microscopic “P”.

161

R12

The same as for item 160, except repeal paragraph (b) and substitute:

(b) “1oz 9999 SILVER”; and

seems to be describing a novel BOP design in gold and silver...

 

Yes, but note the date: "Dated: 10 February 2020"

No new BoP proof in 2020.

Gosh, yes right you are... bizzare decision for such great looking coins

 

The PM had authorisation for new BoP coin designs, but did not mint them.

 

A lot of these now on eBay, the "rare" HH $2 coins at ridiculous prices
