Title: 1st Commemorative Token issue.
Post by: accumulator on July 15, 2013, 09:40:12 PM
I had half an hour spare on Saturday so i had a quick look at coins ending soonest on ebay, this caught my eye as i knew i had picked up a set a few years back http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SYDNEY-MONORAIL-1988-RARE-1ST-ISSUE-SET-OF-TOKENS-/321158228310?pt=AU_Coins2&hash=item4ac685a956&_uhb=1.
I remember thinking at the time "one day these might be of interest to someone & they are cheap,yeah i'll buy them & put them away ".
Does anyone else have Monorail Memorabilia ?

The packaging has a few scuffs but the tokens are in pristine condition.

Isn't the monorail about to cease operating- might be a good time to sell.!!
