Hi, Just saw the coin releases by the PM today and even the platinum platypus isn't safe. http://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/F2012L00870/Explanatory Statement/Text Say it isn't so. umm, enjoy? Blake.
2012 AUSTRALIAN KOALA - HIGH RELIEF (Item 1) 2012 AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA - COLOURED (Items 6 - 9) 40 YEARS OF FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN CHINA AND AUSTRALIA (Item 28) LOL! 2012 AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA - PRIVY MARK (Items 37) Eagle 2012 AUSTRALIAN KOOKABURRA - PRIVY MARK (Items 31) Dragon Madness, they've gone bonkers!
And now a 2012 Kookaburra with eagle privy. Might have been interested in the 4 seasons coins, if they weren't coloured
OK, I can see the picture, now would be a good time to get a new hobby! Actually I stopped collecting coins in 2008, other than a brief period of backsliding during dragon mania, and since then I have started in on the bullion and slowly heading towards the bars. The writting has been on the wall for some time with all the coloured offerings which have been declining in interest and adding more coloured items is probably not the answer.
I notices that the next opal release was to be a Kangaroo. I thought the Opal series was ment to celerbrate Australias nocturnal animals, I was hoping for a Bilby or something differents, (for hubby to buy of course there are those of you out there who know feel about them Opal coins.)
