Had these 2 poppies sittin on me puta for a few weeks and just see a speck on one so gave it a blow and didn't move so I thought hold on..and then in a split sec it was like you bloody rippa I finnaly got to do it, my first found cud error that I haven't seen anything about :yahoo:
So quick every one grab those poppies and have a look as I have about 6 now and that's the only one so lets see how many others are out there :winkextra:
I'm so stoked :wavemulticolor:
I think that is the first poppy cud reported! :ok:
Nancy will be jealous.
Nice find. Now to check out mine. I only have five and I found this: All my other Poppy $2 coins show some form of cudding about the poppy. Maybe a rush job by the RAM.

mmm must be going to be common if between our 11 coins 2 are cuds..Nancy's found enough :mocking:
Not sure what is more impressive: The cud or the photography!
Heheheheh!!! Back on 7 Feb, I made this post:

I am a teensy bit jealous of Aj's cud though. Well done Aj!! :shout:
I'll have to get one of those, as it's a bit different to mine. :winkextra:
Great detective work Ausjack.!!:good:
NANCY you! :ireful: I knew it was too good to be true but like you said it is a little different and thanks to all for your comments, it means a lot :thank_you: but like I said it was a total accident but I might have picked it up when I put it in a 2x2 :) and how that..the quickest roughest pic's I've taken and they turn out ok..that might be my trick and just take them quick in stead of trying to get it right and constantly getting it wrong :dance2:
Hey Ausjack
Did you use a microscope thingee for those pics? or your camera? Good pics
ps - it might be possible that the mint withdrew that die when they found the cud error (?), so they may not end up being really common errors, i'd tuck 'em away just in case
good find
well spotted AJ.
Just me fuji s5800 using supermacro setting :)
good shots mate
too good for me to keep up with aj ...
your just too good .. ,, kel ,,
Yeah just free hand photo..seem to do a lot better that way :)
:wavemulticolor: this time I've finally done it so in your face coin god..I was hoping it was a one off but now I have 3 x 50 cent bubbles so yes people I'm pretty sure I've found a new variety as I can't find anything about it anywhere..so who want to buy a bubble, but serious I might put one up for auction so where do I do it, here or get Walter to do it for me..thoughts please people :scratch_one-s_head:
Remember people I found it first..it's mine all mine RAHAHAHAHAHAAAARRRRR http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjB9jlDvUNM

now now, no need to be like that..well I thought it was a good story and I'm sticking to it :mocking:
Nice find AusJack, I scored one in change maybe 4 days ago I think. I gave a 20 to the bottlo attendant for my 3 bottles of bourbon $18, when he was handing over the $2 coin I noticed the poppy flash as it exchanged hands. I thought to myself "cool, I haven't come across one of these since they first came out" I left the bottlo, looked at the coin and noticed to cud on the poppy along with maybe a weak strike on some of the legend on the Obv. I thought it was already a found variety so I didn't think much of it except to put it away lol.

Three of the petals are, yes. As is the filled lettering. But that fourth petal... well... :)
I ended up with 50-60 of these from last year and I haven't put them under the USB gizmo yet.
What exactly am I looking for here ?, I pic would be AWSOME :ok:

There's a pic of a Petal 4 cud in http://www.australian-coins.net/sendthread.php?tid=1266
The more common Petal 1 and 2 cuds have been posted by others. They all start the same way... where the lettering meets the petal, the die seems to disintegrate, forming first a small filled letter, then developing into significant cuds.
No sign yet of cuds on Petal 3.
Many of these coins also have filled lettering on the Obverse.
Haven't seen a circulated Poppy 2 dollar unfortunately :(
Great work Ausjack.
Got to admit to a "new" technique for "sourcing" $2 coins. Popped $4 into a drink machine and pressed the wrong button. Out came 2 x $2 coins - not the same ones I put in. One was a poppy.
Tried the same thing the next day and out came a 2011 $2. Also got my first 2013 50c in change from the same machine. Yes, I know I'm desperate. :dodgy:
Pedro
Good thinking Pedro.!!
Robster, not sure much thinking went into it - more like I didn't have my glasses and couldn't read what the buttons were for! :blush:
However, once I mastered the "mistake" (ie technique) well, then we were onto something.
Pedro
I realise getting sacks is a bit wholesale for many, but don't you think raiding drinks machines is kinda micro-retail? :angel:
People please be advised there is nothing rare about any coloured $2 coins

Actually, I wasn't going to bother, but I just found that triple error 1988. The usual star crack, the rare cudded dots on the L,
AND the rarer stripe cuds, all on the same coin. :yahoo:
Makes your roo poo look like.. well.. poo. ;)

Nice one by the way :good:
