I picked up an 86 earlier this year, It's weird to see these all knocked about from circulation.
You have a BUG next to your post AC.

Please accept my apologies and I hope you enjoy the coin :good:

Just choose the icon you want. Any one of these can be placed at the beginning of your post. I just chose the little pink heart, but I've pointed out the little green bug for you. Have fun! :wavemulticolor:

On Sunday, pulled out a 2000 HMAS Sydney $1 at work.
On Tuesday, was handed a Korean War $1 in change.
It was very sad how excited I got!

Mark and I spent about an hour at the pokies tonight and managed to pull out not one but 2 mintmark Parkes dollars, an A and B, a planchet flaw Smithy and a proof 1987, none of which are in particularly good condition and I got free Minties!
"Free Money" Yay.!!!:angel:
The only four NCLT coins I have found in circulation are these...

the hubby was very excited again tonight as he got a coin in his lunch money change today
it's a 2000 The Last Anzacs coin that you can only get in PNC's
he even asked me if i'd take a picture for the forum as I tell him about the noodling tales!

All Hail the "Lunch Time Noodler." LOL
Tell him he did really well! :wavemulticolor:
Yes, he did real well. That Anzac has only just come out of the trenches!
Looks like it was a short tour of duty for that Last Anzacs coin. Nice save!
I still can't get over the fact that some people just spend them. Rip open the packaging and spend it! Granted some are worth not much over face but a lot of them are worth well over! And they've spent them for a dollar.
Nice work Karl.
I'm jealous!! I'd say I've found at least 50 $1 NCLT in circulation, but never one of those!
Years ago when Julie and I were at the mint and doing a couple hundred coins, we were stepping back after each batch to give the punters a shot. During one of these breaks we were dumbfounded to see a guy ask his mate to lend him a dollar, and the mate handed him the one he'd just made, which went right in the slot! I mentioned this to the shop staff, and they were not surprised. Said they got quite a lot of newly minted coins in the hoppers. Un-Be-Lieve-Able! :/
Just wait for the heart pounding to start if you just happen to noodle a 2000 VC Coin............WOW

If one does some noodling around the clubs in the ACT and other clubs close to the ACT, one will find quite a few "mint" $1 coins.

You mean like this one? Yup, the old heart skipped a couple of beats. :)

Dats der von. I found mine at crown whilst noodling a couple of years ago. I only saw some of the ribbon and knew straight away that it was the VC coin.
In my humble opinion, the VC coin is the Scarcest to find if noodling.

That find is almost as good as finding the VC coin whilst noodling. Nice find.
aww I wish I had a VC
The VC or the COIN?
Apologies for the double post... just want to compare tinypic vs G+

Lol yeh it was a nice find, it was a toss up who found it with me and my nephew, I spotted it and he picked it up. Lucky I had another $1 coin in my pocket otherwise it could have went to the lolly machine. I reckon that someone would have just dropped that coin no more than and hour before we found it. Is in real nice condition.

Got a 2006 TV S Counterstamp $1 - 2 days ago in change, it does seem weird when you get one knowing it wasnt really meant to make circulation lol
cool find esp. being counterstamped as well
Hello,
Today I did a swap with a workmate, and got what I think is a '99 $ 1 proof Coin from a set. Super shiny with no marks at all.

Very nice. :good:
Great finds everyone :)
I found a C mintmark 2002 $1 last night.
Got a 2015 Home Front 20c from that year's ANZAC coins series in change yesterday.
well done kchan :good:
Quote from: 'ausjack' pid='108355' dateline='1494147981'well done kchan :good:
This is my first!
As I said on Coin Community, I noodled two coins from that series during the early part of last year, and it took me a while to realise they were NCLT. I thought the mint had decided to sneak a few more commemoratives into circulation, and I was bitterly disappointed when I realised that wasn't the case. :cray:
Got this from the local post office today! Still looks pretty decent despite being 13 years old!

Good pick-up Rolly :good:

Looks good but the "C" looks a long way away from the flagpole.
I was going to say that it was from the Portable Press but I don't think the portable press was used to do any "C" Eureka coins.
Nice find Rolly! :good:
Probably from the mint gallery press. There's a picture of one right here:

All the various mintmarks for the 2004 Eureka Stockade $1 coins are positioned under the "S" in "Stockade" Just as this one is :ok:
Nothing unusual about this particular coin and mintmark.
Some of the "Es" got a little closer to the flag pole.

I actually have the mint gallery version that a family member who was visiting Canberra got for me that year, and it looks identical to the one Rolly found. Hence, when I look at the one with the "E" mintmark, I'm surprised to see that it's so close to the flagpole.

Finished of checking my 1,300 x 20c pieces and this one popped out:
https://www.australian-coins.net/gallery/displayimage.php?pid=19611
Me thinks it should not have been in circulation.
Methinks plenty of those series will turn up in the next few years. I have found quite a few and not just the first, free one with the newspaper.
