Saw this package of coins and thought cha ching I'll grab all that.

Paid $65 and $10 postage so $75 if my math is correct??

Looking at recent sale prices I'd recoup my outlay on the Ox, Echidna, Wallaby, and little friend coin issues if I resold them, the rest is basically free. But I'll hang on to them, after all whats a collection if you have nothing??

Thats good to know, Ebay is always frought with "buyer beware"

I have a question too.

You know the coins like the $5 ones, are they legal tender?? could I take a $5 coin to a bank and would they give me $5 for it?

Yes, still legal tender, the fun thing would be watching the confused look on their face.!!

I take $5 coins back to the bank quite often. Usually the parliament house or anzac ones. Most ive taken back at once was 80 of them.
