Howdy all Hope you all had a awesome New Years and wish you all the best for 2015. Anyways.. I need some help with this coin/token I recently picked up, I have searched and searched but have come up empty handed. It has no date so not sure when it was struck. Any info would be much appreciated. Cheers.
Not much info aside from someone else asking a similar Q- http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=155241 Just a generic copper souvenir from the 80's judging by the looks of.
There is a machine where you can strike your own medallion at the end of the tour, you put your money in and press the button. Looks like one of those, but either a weak strike, old die or it has seen some wear. You don't get a capsule with it.
I would keep hold of it, they might change the dies or there could be varieties. I have mine somewhere, if I can dig it out I can see if they look the same. I don't think it cost much to mint though, it was the cheapest souvenir I could find
Would love to see a pic of yours when you get the chance mate Thanks heaps for the help guys, much appreciated.
The ones we do now have swan logo on the back, but we do so many of them I think you'll have to wait a bit for them to become rare.
