    But what I did come across today was

    An Aus 1930 Penny , Adelaide Pound type II :cool:
    As I was having a good look at them , somebody from here walked past ;)
    And I just wanted to show then & a deal was struck ( I think ) for a steal :D
    In the same lot were
    A 1921-22 three pence overdate , as in the article in the other link somewhere :D
    AND
    A 1856 Sydney Sovereign :D
    I'm waiting on pics for the later two coins :D

    Something we PM stackers look at as a SHTF scenario that we hope to be prepared for: 1923 Germany hyper inflationary notgeld (emergency money)

    [​IMG] [​IMG]

    1923 Germany 100 Million Mark notgeld

    1923 Germany 500 Million Mark notgeld

    [​IMG] [​IMG]

    About the coin/s: Kienast K-644 - Ruhr & Rhein German people's offering 1923.
    Obv. Legendless. Central design is Prometheus chained to a rock with an eagle picking at his liver.
    Rev. Legend: DEUTSCHES VOLKS-OPFER RUHR u. RHEIN 1923 50 MILLIONEN MARK (German people's offering Ruhr and Rhein 1923, 50 million mark). Central design is an eternal flame.
    On the edge: NOTGELD (Emergency money)* incused.
    In addition to the above there are 2 other coins with the value of 100 million and 500 million mark, respectively.
    Struck - 33 mm in diameter. The 50 million value in brass. The 100 million value in white metal or silvered bronze. The 500 million value in gilded metal. Designed by the famous German medalist Karl Goetz.

    And a nice cold shut error on a 1963 sixpence.

    And the last one, a clipped 5 cent.

    Depends on your definition of numi... It's a Liberian proof 2004 Kook with a 5k mintage.
