Just a thought, does anyone have a feeling on what might be put on our circulating coins this year?
And which denomination it may be?

Keep an eye on the Currency Determinations. They describe everything precisely, and are often referred to here.
There's a circulating Anzac $1 released now
haha I know :P
isn't there supposed to be a new effigy of the Queen coming out on all coins this year?

:dontknow: First I've heard of it. :scratch_one-s_head:
I don't know either sorry but I'll find out in a few months when they're in the banks :good:
ebay sellers is usual barometer
Anyone found any 2014 circulating coins yet?
Have they even released any?

I haven't seen any yet.
come on Steve I'm just getting the 2013, we are at least 6 months behind :(
I saw a 2014 5c on ebay, but I would guess it came from a mint set.

Undoubtedly. No new coin anywhere to be seen lately. :(
Got my first non-commemorative 2014 coin in change today!
A 5c!
:yahoo: well done Oz so they are coming out so another 6 months and I'll get some :winkextra:
Got a couple of 10c pieces from the pub last night.
I picked up a bag of $2 2014 last week. Also got the 100 Years Anzac coin in Sydney last week at the pub.
Received two gold coins in change today and both keepers - a 2014 $2 and 2014 ANZAC $1.
Pedro
2014 5c 10c $1 and $2 spotted ... well done
Still not seen any 2014 coins in Perth. :(

The things us blokes do to keep the peace in the household for love is amazing and unappreciated by those that don't do it :angel:
Personally I would have kept that bugger fer myself :diablo: :laugh2:
yeah well he did try
but I spotted it on the table with is change and when I cleared the table for dinner ... well ..... I 'popped' it in front of my computer to take a photo 'later'
I fessed up and he gave it to me ... such a sweetie
Nothing sighted in my area either. Not that its through lack of effort though. I am planning a road trip next week to the Eastern states, so we will see if that week away bares any fruit for me.
Got 2 Anzacs in change today at IGA in Deakin ACT
I expect that we will get 2014 coins some time in ummm maybe 2053 if I'm lucky :(
But well done to those that have found some and good luck with your travels Cougar :good:
Hi AJ,
There are 5 in a packet heading your way later today....

I managed to snag 3 2014 5c coins today in my change at Coles. It felt like Christmas.
Bags of 2014 50 cent coins showed in Brisbane today.
I scored 2 bags of 2014 $2 coins today!! I would have got more from them but they only had 3 and one was opened and in the till. I was happy to have the 2 they had not yet touched.
So far only $1 Anzac here (central NSW).
$2 found today which is my first 2014 coin found
Still no sign of any 2014 coins here in Perth. :(
Wifey showed me a 2014 $2 coin last night here in Melbourne.
100 Years of Anzac $1 coins have been turning up here the last few weeks.
Today at my local (North of Adelaide) pretzel shop I was given a 2014 $2 coin in my change, the first in this part of town.
9 months into 2014 and I finally found my first 2014 circulating coin.
I found a $2 coin in the till at work.
I have only received a 2014 10c from circulating so far
Picked up my first 2014 $2 yesterday. It was in our change tin from selling at the markets.
Got this in change this morning from ALDI:
10c 2014 c1 Duo

Awesome pic Nevol and well done :)
great pic
Seen a few more 2014 $2 coins floating in the till lately and today I found my first 2014 10c. :)
(Also found a 2001 Bradman 20c, haven't one of those for a while.)
Hello all...just curious as to where is the thread for the 2014 MOR?
Hi Chuckey hope this is what your after mate
http://www.australian-coins.net/showthread.php?tid=2744&page=19&highlight=2014+mor
2014? I wish!
50¢ noodlimg last week and this week has turned up many 2013 -around 20% of population.
Neither of the two banks has had them so, must be the supermarket -all with Armaguard but bank contracts are serviced from Orange and supermarket is state wide contract. [I could advise Armaguard, for a fee of course, how they could cut some costs with their delivery/pickup runs.]
I continue to wait. I have picked up Unc Armaguard bags from local banks before with two year old dates.
Any idea on the mintage numbers on the 2014 coins? Only found 10c and 50c so far!
CC, to my knowledge the RAM has flagged the 2014 mintages for:
MOR $1 2.0m
ANZAC $1 23.0m
AIATSIS 50c 2.0m
The mintages for rest we need to wait for the upcoming 2013/14 RAM annual report for guidance. Even then however more 2014 coins should be produced in 2014/15 so unless the RAM specifically announces otherwise (like they have with the abovementioned issues) final mintages for 2014 coins won't be available until later next year.
Pedro
When they're available CC they will turn up here and click on the denomination you want on the left hand side, hope it helps mate. http://www.ramint.gov.au/designs/ram-designs/50c.cfm
Or like Pedro said you can chase up RAM annual report.

Email from the RA Mint to me:
"Thanks for your call earlier. As discussed on the phone, I can confirm that the Royal Australian Mint rolled the 2014 $1 Mob of Roos Coin in-house. There isn't an official mintage of the rolled $1 coins. There are approximately 1 million 2014 $1 'mob of roos' circulating coins being produced."
Oops - :blush: reading skills weren't working at full tilt were they!
Pedro
I swear I have seen the 2014 twenty cents while at work. Don't collect the decimals but still look out for nice looking ones. Ironically even at work I handle the coins by the edges if they are nice lol.

RAM didn't lie to you but they didn't tell you the full truth either,they didn't roll the full 1 million coins,the truth will come out
If the RAM is lying re the rolling of the 2014 Kangaroo 41's then why would they do only some and not all.
I spoke with the Portable press operator(s) at the Melbourne Show Monday, 29 Sep 2014 and they confirmed that ALL the coins were rolled by the RAM as they had to do maintenance on the coin rolling machine before it could be used.

WOW!! thanks a milllion
PS I want one!!!!!
excellent VIEWING. tHANKS FOR POSTING.
I don't know then how the RAM can explain the existence of Armaguard 2014 $1 MOR then ... don't believe everything RAM tell you general public
cool video clip :)
I don't think the mint would have bothered to roll every $1 MOR 2014 coin minted... that's would be a lot of time wasted on their behalf as they sold them at face value to dealers, Armaguard is one of the country's normal circulation coin distributers, as such the mint has probably had enough making mint rolls and has sent the coins to the distributer companies
special edition I reckon
they are good at doing that
anyways, the fun part is that we have our precious ram rolls for the investment portfolios that we are all working on
Found my first 2014 coin yesterday - a 10c piece half-submerged in a garden bed.

Here is my 2014 50 cent coin, OK so I cheated and got this Last year in a mint set But if I waited to find one from circulation in the West it would be a battered horrible mess of a coin

(http://i1285.photobucket.com/albums/a585/auntyrobbs/50c2014_zpsaa6adece.jpg)
OK
Now you are going to have to tell me how to get the 2 images side by side :angel:
Gee you guys and gals with your camera set ups you are making me jealous here lol. Have to wait another week or two for the rest of mine to arrive :P
insert the pics into powerpoint, choose a matching design background and then save it as a Jpeg interchange format slide in your photos folder (if you like)
I did reduce the pixcels coins first intending to upload them here from photobucket - they would look much better if I had not had done that
there are other ways to do it but I don't know how to - bet that you can in the paint program
OMF - you will be up there showing us how it's done in no time - practice practice is the operative word for it
2014 50c have started circulating,my father found a few a couple of weeks ago

I managed to get some Anzac $1 coins here in Adelaide today.
Just got this one today:
$2 2014 Duo

haven't seen that one here
do have 2 X Anzac $1 coins so far

Not too sure where my head's at these days. When I went to put the $2 away, I discovered I already had 5 of them, and I'd say 4 of them came from circulation. The 5th one is in a 2x2 with someone else's writing on it so I obviously bought it, but I have absolutely no recollection of any of them. :dontknow:
None of them are in what I'd call 'good' nick and all will go back in the pond, including the one in the 2x2,
if I come across some better ones.
Opened up 5 rolls of MOR 2014 $1 coins and this was the best of them
although it has a a couple of mint depression errors (one on the edge of the largest roos tummy and one near its front paws) but I hope PCGS receive it well

Looks MS64 to me Mate.
These were NOT well looked after at all :dash1:
Nice to see everyones new found coins keep up the great work and keep posting these :)
I am frequently coming across 5,10,20 a few 50, some Anzac $1 and lots of $2 coins in Adelaide now. Yet to come across any green $2 in circulation though.
I have come across everything now except for the commemorative $2. Has anybody seen these in circulation yet? (I may have missed this somewhere else)
I got $200 in security bags of 'standard' 50c pieces the other day. I've only found a single AIATSIS 50c so far!
I think that probably matches with what I find as well. Thanks for sharing your stats.
I found 3 AIATSIS coins last week.
It was the first noodling I have done in ages.
There are lots of Anzac $1 coins around here now. Only yesterday my wife watched her checkout operator break open rolls of them to hand her 5 of them.
Have picked up about 20 of the ANZAC $1s over the past couple of weeks so they are out in force but strangely have yet to see a 2014 5c (not expecting to see a green $2 in change if last year is any guide with the purple $2).
Pedro
I have so found gotten 2 regular 2014 50c, 1 10c and 1 ANZAC $1 in my change. They sure take time to filter through.
I was actually extremely lucky to get 3 of the corrination $2 coins last year can't gind any 2014 5c either
Pulled 5 x 2014 5c pieces out of the till at work today.
So they are out there at last. :)
Found my first AIATSIS 50c today.
I have still only found one of those AIATSIS 50c to date.
I saw a bag of the green $2 coins on ebay today, but at $155, I will pass. They must be on the way..
I got a green $2 from a family member today!
:)
That's cool, I will have to look harder to add one to my circulating coin folder
My wife got a $2 green 2014 in the Brisbane CBD this week.
A workmate also found a $2 green coin in Sydney CBD. They came around to show it off to me.
I one-upped him by calmly reaching into my drawer and pulled out one of my $2 green coin rolls. :P
2014 set completed with a 5c falling my way today.

I don't consider that cheating Mate, You would have a better chance of finding a 2000 Mule than a 2014 MOR in circulation :good:
Found my first green $2 today in Melbourne. :)
Got my second rememberance green $2 coin today
I got my second and third green $2 in change today.
I saw one in the till while shopping and asked if I could get it in my change and the nice lady have me 2 of them!
If it takes as long for the $2 to reach W.A., as it did for the ANZAC $1, then we should see them in circulation about June. :(
What a jip, your on the other side of the country and get them before me :( Only just started getting 2014 coins here and got about 15 anzac in the last $500 bag so as you could imagine they're a bit rough but I'll put a few away for a while :)
2014 MOR and 2014 Green in security bags are available in Melb now!
Wifey just walked in from the movies and gave me a 2014 Kangaroo $1 coin. Yippee.
Just rifled through the wife's purse after her trip away and out came a 2014 MOR $1. :yahoo:
Pedro
Be vigilant as the 2013 MOR and the 2014 have been released by AG at the same time.
One 500 coin sack (25 X $20 yellow bags) can hold 2013 or 2014 mor, but generally not mixed.
I've seen everything except the green $2 and the Mob of Roos dollar so far (assuming I haven't lost track of what to look for).
Haven't seen a green here yet. I would be interested in a bag if anyone has picked up some and has spares.
'Be vigilant as the 2013 MOR and the 2014 have been released by AG at the same time." Quite common for UNC, sealed bags to turn up here two or three years down the track! Obviously Armaguard hasn't grasped the concept of rotating stock.
I finally found my first green $2. So I think I've found all the 2014 issued-for-circulation coins, except for the MOR $1.
Got my FIRST 2014 coin from change yesterday and in rather good nick as well :yahoo:

(http://www.australian-coins.net/gallery/albums/userpics/10019/2014_anzac1.jpg)
I found a 2014 20c today, in the float at work.
So far I have found 5c, 10c, 20c, ANZAC $1 and standard $2 in circulation.
(http://www.australian-coins.net/gallery/albums/userpics/10113/2014_Australia_20_Cents.JPG)
Sacks (500 COIN BAGS i.e. 25 x 20 coin baggies) of 2013 MOR are still being distributed by the security cos as of today.
Be vigilant as there may also be 2014 MOR mixed among those 2013's.
Best be checking the date on your ANZAC dollars too!
I found my first MOB of Roos 2014 dollar today.
At last count 124 Anzac 2014 dollars.
And 11 green 2 dollars.
Also today in change a 1991 50 cent piece, always a great day when one of these land in your hands.
Also i was handed a red poppy 2012 2 dollar coin a few weeks back, much to my jubilation.
well done
still haven't seen a green $2 or the poppy red $2 in change or the purple $2
Over the last 20 years I have thrown into a box shiny coins found in change. That amount can be counted in kilograms rather than pieces so I have to do something with them. Is there any value in them or just buy lollies with them? for instance there are few 1988 50c first fleet that have original lustre but magnified inspection will reveal that it has certainly been circulating.
Values will depend on what the coins are.
Most coins from circulation are not worth much over face value.
Some to check for would be
"2000 Incuse 50c", "2000 $1/10c mule", "2001 rotated $1"
those in nice condition will be worth a fair bit over face value.
Any low mintage, in good condition would be worth keeping.
To mention a few;
•1972 5¢
•1971 20¢
•1995 20¢ (United Nations)
•1985, 1993 50¢
•1991 50¢ ramshead
•2001 Centenary of Federation 20¢ and 50¢
There is a thread in the forum listing known upset (rotated) coins. And have a browse through for threads discussing error and variety coins such as;
•$1 rabbit ears
•Double bar 50¢
•Cuds, planchet flaws, collar errors
•1970 and 1994 50¢ date varieties
•2008 gap and 2010 bubble 20¢
That's just some off the top of my head.
Check out also the forum wiki and a visit here The Australian Coin Collecting Blog (http://www.australian-threepence.com/) would not go astray. Plenty of other sites also discuss varieties and errors.
You could also look on eBay to see what varieties are listed and sold -but be careful; a lot are manufactured and not genuine.
If you don't know what to do with the "keepers" take take your chances on eBay or offer them here. I would be happy to negotiate to buy some of the ones I mentioned (and probably others that have just slipped my mind now).
A few more that come to my mind are,
1966 Wavy 20 cents
2014 $1 MOR
Any coloured $2 coin
Again not all coins will be worth much more than face value, but to the right collectord you might double the face value (if not more).
Good advice, thanks, Ill go through them and put aside the less common types.
Bring them to me and I'll sort em for ya.......no charge@!
Noodled my 2nd 2014 MoR today.

Sorry for the poor quality pictures.
Last Wednesday I searched through 3000 $1 coins (N-W Suburbs Melbourne) and found 11 X 2014 MOR.
This is a list of all the 2014 coins I have found in circulation that were worth keeping:
$2 Elder X 12
$2 REMEMBRANCE X 1
$1 ANZAC X 24
$1 MoR X 0
50 COA X 6
50C AIATSIS X 2
20C X 8
10C X 9
5C X 4
I bought some but they're not included in this list.
I got my first Aiatsis 50 in change today here in Adelaide.
Finally found my first 2014 COA 50c today.
So now I have 5c, 10c, 20c Platypus, 50c COA, 50c AIATSIS, $1 ANZAC, $2 Aboriginal. Are there any other circulating coins that I am missing?
(http://www.australian-coins.net/gallery/albums/userpics/10113/2014_Australia_50_Cents.JPG)
Yes the green golly, haven't seen any here yet :(
(http://i62.tinypic.com/28rcldg.jpg)
Yes the $1 MoR and the $2 remeberance (green coloured $2 coin).
Doh, thanks mkonst forgot about the $1 mor but haven't found any of them yet either, takes forever to get the new coins here.
OK, it looks like just 2 more to find.
They should be here in Perth by 2017. :(
I got a Mob of Roos $1 yesterday - the first so far.
Well done Mr T, only found two myself here but heaps of the anzac and still no green $2 but think they might be a lot harder, so I bought a roll off our lovely PP so now I don't have to worry about it being all bashed up like a lot of the coins by the time they get here :good:
Is there a commemorative 20c I've forgotten about or is it just the platypus so far?
I think only the pus for circulation Mr T, the 2013 was the canberra one.
Ok I had to open that roll I got off PP and found two good green gollies that have been sent to a forum mate :friends: But the rest were all errors so here's some of them with a weak strike on the lis and some have very tiny little cracks on some of the letters so that was pretty cool :) and they haven't been getting bad money on feebay so thank you so very much PP :thank_you:
