:agreed:
Someone will feel pretty foolish if they buy these when the rest of them surface into circulation :angel:
Bargain
There probably won't be that many. The 2015 mintage was pretty low, and that was without the changeover coin to contend with. Nevertheless, I wouldn't pay a thousand bucks for one. Maybe $10 if you caught me on a really good day, considering that's what I paid for a counterstamped one. :)
Received my first one today, stood out like nothing else.
1.8 million minted so far, common as dog s***.
Not in this neck of the woods. Almost all of the ones I've seen are dated 2014.

Which forest is that?
Sunny Queensland
Oh those bloody cassowaries.
I don't think they come this far south, but if you're going to start talking about cassowaries, you might as well do it properly:

We're more likely to have trouble with Bull Sharks in the Brisbane River than Cassowaries in the forest. :angel:
The OTP will be on to us soon. :biggrin:
Pardon my ignorance, but what does OTP stand for?
I hadn't seen that abbreviation before but only had to think for about two seconds to work it out. :off_topic::police_car:

Well, der.. given that there are at least ten times as many out there, you would expect that. ;)
OK On topic, do Cassowaries and bull sharks hoard the 2016 $1 Anzac's? And will they attack you if you have one!

Absolutely, but only if you're close enough for them to become aware that you have one. :angel:
I know that big bull sharks cruise well up the Brisbane River and can be dangerous.
I didn't know about cassowaries but will beware of them now.
However I am also concerned with the zombies in Queensland.
Sighted on Bribie Island last Sunday!

We also used to have crocodiles, but that was a very long time ago.

Probably before the bull sharks started coming up the river. :winkextra:
Got one today from small changes. Like it.

Guy next to me got one too!
Is the 100 Year ANZAC rarer than the regular MOR $1 for 2016?
So far, according to the RAM annual reports they've made 11.544m of the standard 2016 MORs and 1.8m of the 2016 ANZACs. I think we'll have to wait for next years annual report until we know for sure though. Currently at this rate I've hung onto only all but the best 2016 MORs. I'm yet to see a 2016 ANZAC.
