I know of 3 people that have found the coloured rings on the wrong side of the coin. 2X 2015 red anzac $1 and 1x green remembrance $2.. 2 of which I know are from mint bags

Quote from: 'runway' pid='75916' dateline='1437483295'Possibly a higher mintage than 2015 MOR $1 there is the usual sellers who have bucket loads of rolls of these

Maybe the 2015 100 years anzacs will be the lower one this year

Quote from: 'Unicorn' pid='75889' dateline='1437451934'Since you're buying rolls from a third party, I'm hoping (for you) that it will be similar to the 2014 MOR. Fingers crossed eh!

Me too

Quote from: 'Pedro' pid='75884' dateline='1437444315'Anybody heard any whispers on the likely mintage of the 2015 $1?

Pedro

Well the 2014 $1 is apparently a low mintage, I'm assuming because they minted so many of the 100 years of anzac $1s. I'm hoping it's the same assumption for 2015 $1s.

Quote from: 'Unicorn' pid='75879' dateline='1437436983'Cool Matt, looks to be the impression of a breaking die (ie: before it breaks off and starts leaving a CUD).

Can't wait to eventually find some 2015 coins to actually noodle!

Sweet thanks mate, I'm getting more rolls from the same seller so I'm hoping there is more lol

Hey all how's it going?

Has anyone come across this one yet? Slightly dips into the nose. 17 out of 20 in the roll had the same flaw, the one in the image though is the biggest one. Blue circle photo is a normal 2015 $1. Thanks in advance

I'll quickly add this one, last year sometime I was in an auction bidding on a broken 8 variety and noticed something a tad different with the coin. It was missing part of the bottom scroll. Bidding ended up going higher than I wanted to pay for it but thinking back, I haven't seen another one since.

Quote from: 'ausjack' pid='73546' dateline='1433088719'Think it's just a weak strike Matt, what's the hair look like close up.

The hair looks normal to me

Quote from: 'markn' pid='73555' dateline='1433107773'Frosting has worn off of the die?

Can the frosting do that?

Hey all how's things? Just curious to know what could have caused this? The A in AUS has been struck correctly and it is all there but the right leg of the A looks like it hasn't been struck with enough pressure or along the lines of a worn die in the AUSTR part of the die. I hope that made sense lol. Thank you in advance

Quote from: 'Nevol' pid='73221' dateline='1432771161'Hey Matt, I found another small D.Ck on the coins I have left. It appears to be on all of them, so I'd say it forms part of the shatter, just to the left of the top of the 2:

20c 2001 Rev Shattered Die D.Ck #9

Quote from: 'Australian coin' pid='73193' dateline='1432725873'hmm a bit of info might have helped, but found ebay listing
"Australia: 1977 QEII Silver Jubilee Uniface trial Medallion. 31mm dia. RARE"

Whoops sorry mate, wasn't even thinking. But the listing that was on ebay is the one that he bought lol. I've seen that ERII on a couple of other medallions and they were Australian military medallions or badges, a couple of other collectors were thinking military too.
#13
I have a friend that bought this trial medallion but he can't find any information on it anywhere, I could swear that I seen the uniface being used as an example on another website but I can't find said website. The only photo I can find of it is the only photo on google that I can see and it is of the coin that he bought.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Thanks for those images Nevol, I can now see the little d.crack to the right of the platy now lol and I didn't even take any notice of the little cud on her forehead, must have been distracted by the cracks haha

Quote from: 'MattGold' pid='73046' dateline='1432541162'I've got a friend online that is interested in one but I wouldn't have a clue on what to value one at.

Pencil me in for one too if you ever work out a reasonable price. :)

No worries Fulvio, I will send you a message when I work something out. Thanks mate
