    The ones on ebay are Armaguard. Looks like someone on the inside is rolling them up when nobody is looking.

    Would prefer them in bags, the less handling damage the better. I remember seeing rings on coins apparently from the rolling process.

    Looks like the Mint is finally selling some of these coins for a limited time.

    http://www.ramint.gov.au/media/noticeboard/2015/20151007.cfm

    - Poppy Counterstamp version of this coin only available onsite in Canberra
    - Bag of 5 coins sold at face value (like the 2013 coronation coins) available online

    Where can you get the Poppy Counterstamp coin? Can't see them on the Mint website.

    I saw some photo of the bag...shocking! It was just like an ordinary self sealed pastic bag.

    Hi everyone,

    Ouch remember when they were selling for $50 to 100 each!! Now with postage $4 each from RAM, love how they have distributed this one. Now they have made a limited mint mark version which you can once again only get if you pay inflated eBay prices or fly to Canberra. Anyway that's my rant for the week. Well done to those that made a huge profit out of it. Off to see how many 5 coin packs l can get. Lots of new ram members on the way.

    It will be interesting to see how much these 5 coins bags will sell for on Ebay.

    The 2013 coronation 5 coin bags sell for $140+

    Just a heads up, if you order early enough, you might ended up with a plain self-adhesive plastic bag. RAM has advice that you can return it to get a RAM printed sealed bag.

    If you wonder, I did get the crappy plain bag.

    There were a lot of talk on the FB Group about it. Basically what happened was the earlier order send out in a plain bag, and later order with RAM bag (like the 2013 coin).

    I send mine back yesterday, see how I go
