New 2015 $2 coin being released this monday, red colored coin ????

I ordered my first 5 pack bag late last week. It hasn't arrived yet so I'll wait to see if I get plain or special packaging.

Also if anyone didn't see it - the limit is one bag per order. I tested it out and ordered a second 5 pack a couple of days later which also went through. :)

Not the most efficient process of buying multiple bags of coins though.
 
Hi all, this is what the new 5 coin RAM bag looks like.

these are the only "official" bags or rolls of these coins so worth hanging on to I would think :) and should be in better condition also.

I see no issue numbers on how many bags will be sold anyone know?
 
If we look at the 2013 $2 Coronation, it various form/SKU gives a different return. The highest return is on the RAM carded $1 that was $12.50 on release and followed by the RAM printed bag with 5 coins on it. I think this RAM bag offers a wider potential buyers as they are more affordable than buying the roll or bag and it actually carries some authentication that it is an "official" product from RAM.

I have read people buying multiples bags of the 2015 $2, which is $20/bag ($4/coin), which is the same price per coin with the security bag that is now easily bought for $100 ($4 per coin).
 
So does that mean it's worth buying or not?

Basically the fact that I could get a bag of 25 at the same $/coin made me pause.

If you can buy something in smaller quantity with the same price as bigger quantity, obviously its better of to buy the smaller ones.
 
OK, I might grab a bag or two (on separate bloody orders).

Is there anything else from RAM that is worth getting at the same time to save postage?

I don't really do numis so I might struggle to find anything worthwhile.
 
Well in my opinion it's well worth it,2 bags I was watching on ebay sold for $79.00 each not a bad little return once you take out the fees.

These could even fetch over $100 by the end of the year and might even fetch more then the purple coronation as these are a lot harder to find in your change and are being hoarded.
 
offering the 5 coin bag its pretty safe to say dealers will not be getting rolls, guess they have to make a couple bucks somewhere on the bags.

orange never had that colour before and time will tell how long it takes to burn out this $2 coloured coin idea like most mints they will over do it :mad: its just human nature.

One pack of 5 coins per transaction so they can profit on the $10 postage fee on each shipment?

buy something else, I picked up a loop, carded $2 and some 2015 red anzacs, total $80 plus postage of $10
