They've just released a Slim Dusty Dollar too which I'd love to post a thread about but somehow I've managed to lock myself out of our new gallery :dodgy::icon_redface:

He's misplaced his upload button. Not sure how you can do that. It went poof.
I wanna be good so I'm not goin there, you better help him look for his "UP LOAD" button :mocking:
I bet he's deleted it,i deleted my recycle bin once,took a little while to work it out but i did get it back.
How many more coins are the ram going to release this year. This is getting me headed to the bankruptcy court.
May I also suggest that anyone putting up news about new release, that they try a give us a release date please. Makes it easier for budgeting purposes!
I think it looks good.
I like it too. I ordered the both the silver and the uncirculated coins already.-John

I ordered from Downies. The RAM has a number to call on their website, but their postage and handling is too much for me these days.-John

Haha. I've fixed it up and I can post in the gallery again.
I agree with AusJack - They could have done more...

you may already - but if you buy from the RAM shop you go in the draw for the Gold sunset coin ballots
https://eshop.ramint.gov.au/2013-Coronation-Coin/310233.aspx
https://eshop.ramint.gov.au/2013-Silver-Coronation-Coin/210163.aspx
Are the draw details on the RAM website? I don't see them anywhere.-John
no - don't think so but I'll have a look
if you buy from the RAM Shop even just a coin for a few dollars
then you automatically get sent the subscription paperwork to go into the draw
you have to buy from the Mint Shop through the internet or phone sales to be eligible
so each year now I buy a little cheapie and do pick up
That coins on my wish list

I am glad you resurrected this thread Coop's .
The coin is a nicely designed piece and (For a Change) comes with NO nasty scrapes and dings :yahoo:
defiantly a worthy piece in any 50 cent collection :wavemulticolor:
Sure is only problem now is I have to get my hands on one that's just part of the fun!
I think this is a well designed and packaged coin. I like it very much.
For the most part the RAM does a good job with it's royalty themed coins.

I'm glad you said most part.. engagements aren't their strong point. ;)
Point taken.
