Wondering what is the best CBD coin store in Melbourne?

That is, Unique items, Superb customer service, Reliable and of course BEST price.

Here in NZ, we don't really have many "coin" specialty stores and i'm excited to visit one of these businesses. This will be my first time travelling to Melbourne so any other MUST SEE attractions, Please list below.

So far, i have only booked in to watch the A-League game (Melbourne Victory v Western Sydney Wanderers FC) held at Etihad stadium on the 6th feb.

Thanks in advance! :D
 
Well you can visit Gold Stackers for bullion coin and bars (check out their web pages). Downies in Southbank, IS Wright in Lonsdale St, Universal Coin Company (between Collins and Bourke St, Max Stern in Flinders St

Thats all in Melbourne CBD. i hope you enjoy your stay!

Picked a good game to go and see Kezza, don't forget your flares.

If you're into sports, an MCG tour is worth a look and also go pay a visit to ol' kiwi mate Pharlap at the Melbourne Museum in Carlton Gardens.

ANDY WARHOL | AI WEIWEI Art Exhibition will still be on in February (11 DECEMBER - 24 APRIL) at the NGV on St Kilda road.

Is there trout in city section of the Yarra? Caught plenty near Warburton but always thought it was unsuitable for trout in the city.
 
I don't believe there's any trout below Dwight Falls. There's monster cod in there, but are fiercely protected secrets.

Yeah would you say the government / council add these for underwater plant control? We have the same issue in NZ but they seem to go missing regularly.

Most trout populations are self-sustainable in Victoria. Although there are streams and lakes which rely on trout being bred and released. Main reason is for fishing as GP pointed out. Some people here see them as a pest and a threat to native fauna and flora and want them culled but for me there is no better fish to stalk and catch than a trout.

Well depends on what you are looking for. Higher numi end would
Be Universal Coin Co, Bullion is at Goldstackers, current PM and world coins at Downies and IS Wright for anything in between. Max stern is good for some random stuff and a bit of everything and stamps.
 
Is Victoria market any good? Worth taking the wife with a limit on the disposal cash in my wallet? Something about Wednesday nights?

A great place to spend a few hours looking for a bargain, have a coffee, lunch, buskers.

Then catch a free tram in Elizabeth St down to Collins St, and you're close to most of Melbourne's bullion dealers.
