so made a phone call today to the mint out of curiosity, they are selling the P counter stamp coins for $10 same as ANDA show, and postage was $8 and you could by 5 at a time and if you wanted registered post it was an extra $3.  also asked about the mint to order legends silvers and although that closed in February they didn't know how many were actually minted... der. and that you could find out in the next annual records -  poop

its on the mint website somewhere, or you can email the person direct, it comes with the normal "Mint Issue" booklet in the mail. there is no requirements, it just a point system for people who spend big money, they had a page somewhere, if you spend $150 dollars you get a $50 voucher or something, and they remember how much you spend at it totals up and you don't loose the $$$ spent, so you could spend the money over 1 month or 1 year, as I am a tight wad I don't spend anything, but you still get the chance to purchase stuff.
give me a few minutes and ill find the info... is all advertising stuff but it is still good to be on the mailing list because I am always referring to the booklet for pictures and codes and stuff.

click on the legends tab for info

this page says you need to have already registered for the p counter stamp coin, but they should be taking members all year

here is the email>>
legends@ramint.gov.au

you can also use the contact for and fill in you postal address and then you should be on the mailing list for a "mint issue" brochure

there is an online version that eventually gets uploaded but is not as convenient as having it in hand.

Good idea AJ , It costs nothing to join and there is the benefit of getting info early.
I always buy the mint/proof sets and all the other stuff every year so why not get it direct from the mint and maybe get the odd freebie :dance2:
Good on ya AC for bringing this to our attention :give_rose:
