The silver one's are numbered around the edge. Not worth too much but I love them and have quite a few :angel: So who has a gold one? There was a gold one for sale a year or so ago, I believe the seller sold it for bullion which was still a prohibitive price for me.


edit: reduced thread title to post (too many characters threw error).

Nice medals by the way.

My daughter's uncle had a golf game set with Tiger Woods when he was out here (before the rapid fall from grace) anyways, wife-ie was very very pregnant so it was touch and go there but he managed the game and then to attend to husband duties when the baby came a day or so later

Bugger the show Mate , your firstborn is far more important.
You are in for some amazing and heartfelt times in the next few days, a coin show is absolutely insignificant compared to what is about to happen to your family shortly :good:
Best wishes for Mum and Bub .

3rd child, 2nd marriage
older children (12 & 11)
she is thinking of coming and asking for 2 PNC's (one for her and one for bump) to see if they will allow it given the 1 pnc per person policy

1 per person with the PNCs the Perth Money Expo was very strict about that even today
