Looks like I need to keep tracking all these funny extra releases...  :-)

I certainly won't be including things like the 25c ANZAC coins released with the newspapers though.

I notice the RAM link given above does not include the Olympic, Possum Magic or Mr Squiggle $2 coins even though they were released into circulation through Woolworths.


What's the consensus on such coins? Are they considered on par with circulated mint releases? Or more like the uncirculated commemoratives?

That link is just what I wanted.

Thanks very much

Hi,

I endeavour to keep my collection as a basic type-set of Australian coins, but it's quite frustrating given the rate at which the mints produce commemorative coins.  I am only interested in coins released into circulation - so I don't bother with most of these (e.g. the many Anzac variants, the motorsport coins, the endless alphabet releases), but every time a new coin is announced - e.g. the Indigenous Languages 50c or the Repatriation $2, I need to try and find out if they are going to be released or not.

Can anyone point me to a reference website or similar that makes it easy to know if it's a circulation coin or not?

Thanks

Ken
