Title: ANZAC The Spirit Lives 2015
Post by: eccentric on September 24, 2015, 10:04:49 AM
Anyone seen these in circulation?  Rang the RAM about the 2015 dated issue of the 2014 coin and they said that it had been put into circulation as of January this year.  I would have thought that many more would have surfaced if this were the case, but all I'm seeing are one or two at inflated prices on eBay.  Either the information is incorrect or it is a very low mintage.  Any ideas?

I was able to et a few of these from the Newcastle coin swap,
the counterstamp appears to be very light up around the Northern Territory but a bit heavy down around the Great Australian Bite. As a result poor old Lizzy has a bruised neck on the obverse, but scan wont show it I'm  sorry.

Only 10,000 minted from Jan-June 2015, I doubt they were released in Feb, but after June is a debate to have.

The 2015 Anzac $1 swap coins from the changeover tour were badly bagmarked and definitely not same quality from the Melbourne swap day

Well it looks like this design is going to be issued every year between 2014-2018, though have not seen any 2015 or 2016 coins in circulation.

Had to buy some of the  2015's from a facebook page. They were from circulation apparently. Finding the 2014, occassionly.

Post by: trout on July 31, 2016, 06:08:34 AM
I have found 3 of the 2014 coins in pretty good nick as well But none of the 2015 coins.
It looks like there is going to be a new coin every year up to 2018 from that RAM report.

When noodling through $1 coins, I probably find 1 x 2015 ANZAC coin for every 10 x 2014 ANZAC coin. They are there, but seem to be a much lower mintage.
Title: RE: ANZAC The Spirit Lives 2015
Post by: Pedro on August 01, 2016, 07:31:55 AM
:agreed: - the 2015 ANZACs do seem to be low mintage.

Only noodled a couple of the 2015s - my ratio 2014 vs 2015 is far less than Tooloot's.

Hold on to it as it looks like they might be a low mintage.

I have been tossing a lot of 2015 ones back lately. Happy to keep some if anyone wants a few.
Still waiting to see a 2016 ANZAC $1.
Title: RE: ANZAC The Spirit Lives 2015
Post by: ausjack on September 08, 2016, 12:28:12 PM
Going off the number I have noodled I think they'll have a pretty low mintage as I've found heaps of 2015 MOR's but only 2 or 3 of the ANZAC's. Gee I wish the mint didn't take so bloody long to release the mintage figures.
Title: RE: ANZAC The Spirit Lives 2015
Post by: Hercules on September 10, 2016, 10:57:21 PM
This is what I've found since February:
2014 MoR: 6
2014 ANZAC: 130
2015 MoR: 144
2015 ANZAC: 3

That's why I estimate the mintage of the 2015 ANZAC $1 coin as being about 400,000-500,000.
Title: RE: ANZAC The Spirit Lives 2015
Post by: ausjack on September 11, 2016, 06:35:57 AM
I have found about double that and the $1 bag I did yesterday had 1 2014 MoR's and a little over 20 anzac's, 2 x 2015 anzac and 42 2015 MoR's :dash1:

Just finished sorting through 640 x $1 coins for 5 x 2015 Anzac and 22 x 2014 ANZAC coins.

So they are about.

From a $500 bag, 11 x 2014 (mules nil) and 10 x 2015. Previously it has been about twice as many 2014 as 2015 so maybe more 2015 are starting to get around.

I sure hope so. I noodled two 2015 ones from $240 on Tuesday, and that was a personal best. I usually don't get any at all. The 2014 ones are everywhere, though, and some are almost uncirculated.

But almost on par with the 2014 MoR. As far as I'm concerned, that's a low mintage. :)

So most NZ coins are low mintages then. I suppose when it comes to the average coins minted it is a low mintage.

NZ coins are only low mintage because no one lives there. :laugh2:

There have been images of two different 2014 Mules posted so far.
Neither of these finds have been substantiated as of yet and the jury is still out as to if these are Mint Sport or genuine But I wouldn't totally dismiss  the idea that these are real yet. :ok:

Although I am not noodling the numbers I used to do, I am getting quite a few 2014, 2015 and 2016 ANZACS on a regular basis.

They are all starting to turn up.
