Title: are these special
Post by: ausjack on January 21, 2013, 12:58:36 AM
doesn't matter if they aren't as I still like them but would be interested to know what they're worth as I can't work the stupid books out :)

I like the rainbow but very hard to get a decent pic of :(

And the books are all over the place with these, I think it's the perth mint one but not sure sorry :)

The 50c looks to be a double bar and is in oretty good condition. What year is it?

The 1c sure looks like a blunted second whisker which equals Perth, the scarcest type of that year.

The code that makes it work is all screwed up.
This is it fixed.:angel:
Work on your cropping of the image to include
the whole coin.

QuoteSo do mules only have a ring around the obverse or is it either?
Yes AJ, that's correct, only on the Obv. The reverse is the 'normal' side, the Obv is side the where the 10c die was used, which is what makes them mules. :winkextra:

Kel's example is a very nice one with a complete inner ring, which usually adds to their value. Many of the mules only have a partial ring, so they are normally a little cheaper.

:good: that's what they'd like us to think Kel but it's all just cycles mate.

Here's just a wiki list of floods and fires if interested but remember places like here don't get a mention, we come under Brisbane like in 74 the north coast flooded and on that list where it has brissie or the east cost or southern QLD we get it around here as the clarence starts way up there and comes out at Yamba east of here. And fires are the same and they say they learn but they never do. Australia is a bloody big place so there's always somewhere burning or flooding....where can I go where can I hide..I'm freeeekin out :fie: sorry I'm all good, but that's what that want from us :laugh2:
