Yeah, I s'pose so + serial.  Just name me what you think is a fair price.
I can take piccies of all that I have and give fulvio 1st choice and serial 2nd, however I'll be keeping the one I posted. :whistle2:
 
They are all from circulation and are fairly knocked about, but if you want one each they are available.

I honestly wouldn't know where to start, and I wouldn't want to offend by being ridiculously low-ball. Perhaps some others may have some ideas of values?

I'd settle for $31 postage included.  

I've never seen one of them on Ebay and that sort of leads me to think that they're not all that common, however the fact that I have 5 or 6 of them, leads to them being fairly common. :scratch_one-s_head:  6 of one half a dozen of the other. :dontknow:

If anyone else want to buy one, just post here.  I'll get to work on the images soon.

Piccies are almost there,  Would people prefer them with or without the little arrows I use to indicate where to look?

I will keep an eye out for one as I have never seen them before

Matt, there's another crack to the right of the Platy's head, at about 4k.  I noticed it today when I was getting all the piccies ready.  

I might have wasted my time though as it appears no-one wants them any more.

I did have it up for auction but was not getting any interest in it and I did not want to part with it for face value even though I found it, I just believe there is some value to them as I think they're a pretty cool looking coin.


The arrow in blue is the other die crack I can see, must of missed it lol.

That's a fair whack, but then again, its pretty spectacular.

Decisions, decisions... :dodgy:

Email me some bank details. :)

What I thought was C6 turned out to have 2 x D.Cks, on the Rev but none of the others so there's a piccie of it going in the noodling thread.

Thanks for those images Nevol, I can now see the little d.crack to the right of the platy now lol and I didn't even take any notice of the little cud on her forehead, must have been distracted by the cracks haha

Hey Matt, I found another small D.Ck on the coins I have left. It appears to be on all of them, so I'd say it forms part of the shatter, just to the left of the top of the 2:
