Please be advised that the RAM will NOT be attending the normal ANDA Show in Melbourne this year.
However, the RAM will be attending the World Coin Show at Etihad Stadium in OCTOBER WITH the "portable press".
The coin will be the Holey Dollar with "M" Counterstamp.
Hmmm... am I going to want to go and load up on these things I wonder???? Any idea of admission prices yet?
Details are now up on the ANDA website for the 2013 Melbourne ANDA Coin, Banknote and Stamp Show (http://anda.com.au/news.asp?contentID=79), including a list of dealers attending.

Doors will be manned as usual by volunteers from Victorian coin clubs including the Numismatic Association of Victoria and the Melbourne Numismatic society. Please be nice to them, they're working for nothing on their weekend just for the love of the hobby, and besides I'm one of them! Members also put on displays that are well worth a look.
There's also a discount voucher that if your present on the door you get a whole $2 off!

(Yes I've noticed the error at the bottom of the voucher. If I print it out before it's corrected will it be worth more in the future?)
See you there!
I think I will be giving show a miss as the RAM will NOT be in attendance.
If I'm free that weekend I'll most likely head down, although I'm more interested in the International Coin and Bank Show. I hope that means endless tables of world notes! Hehehe
