Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen I hope this reaches you.

I was wondering if I could please get some assistance?

I bought some notes today from Australia Post and I was hoping to get some more information about them?

I bought a next generation of $50 set

A next generation $10 set

And a fairy wren stamp set

I'm pretty much looking for mintages and values if I can?

All items are still sealed.

I'm new to stamp collecting and I was also wondering if anyone knew where I can buy some stamps? Looking to potentially buy some stamp books in good condition.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much for your time.

Thank you for your message, i was just wondering if you had an idea as to what the 2012 red poppies are worth? Are they set to go up in value or down? Thank you

Cheaper the better really within reason.

I think this could be a problem.
Low mintage and cheap don't normally go together.

I'm not so strict on this i'd pay a little bit more if it was something more desirable or rare.

Quote from: 'Triggersmob' pid='127351' dateline='1668418966'Hi Heyman, are you looking only for Aussie coins?

Hi, i've only ever bought Australian coins but i'd consider world coins too!

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen.

I'm looking at buying some new coins soon and I was just wondering if there were any that you can suggest?
I tried to get a red poppy on release but unfortunately I missed out.

I mainly collect coins but i'd also consider notes. I'd be looking for coins that are low mintage and in uncirculated condition.

Cheaper the better really within reason.

Thank you all for your assistance I appreciate it

Good evening ladies and gentlemen.

I was wondering if I could get some assistance please?

I'm trying to find an Australian auction site that sells circulated and uncirculated coins and notes and I was wondering if there were any that you can suggest?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much for your time.

Cheers

Quote from: 'gweidion' pid='126456' dateline='1655439217'I'm surprised you found a circulated one. When the RSL was selling them they were $15 which included a $10 donation that you couldn't claim against your tax. To find one in circulation means someone paid $15 for $2 to use. And that is not counting what the "market" value is. What a loss.

Yeah I'm not sure I think someone gave it to me.

I also got a firefighters coin in some change which was cool

I have one more question if I may? The 2012 remembrance red poppy $2 coin, I have one in circulated condition and I am looking at buying another one and I am just wondering what they are worth in uncirculated condition? Thank you

Quote from: 'gweidion' pid='126344' dateline='1653214245'The US prints so many notes it may as well be toilet paper unless it is pristine uncirculated. Surprisingly some people (fools) were paying $50 plus for recent (2000s) US 1 and 2 dollar notes on the Roxbury auction today. Admittedly they were graded but that is still WAY too much.

A lot of Kennedy half dollars too. Like Mr T says, condition is everything.
This site will give you some idea of what NGC graded Kennedy half dollars are supposedly worth but the caveat being the prices are in US dollars. And this is after someone has paid about $20 US dollars to grade the coin.

Like one of the other members says, you have to buy what makes you happy. Some idiot (me) paid $1500 (plus buyers premium) for a 1885 Carson City Morgan dollar grades MS65 from Downies this week.

Thank you very much for your insight it may be better to steer clear from USA coins at this stage because they would have made a lot of them.

I'm sorry about that Carson city Morgan dollar hopefully it increases in value.

The May issue of the Downies catalogue is actually what I was looking to purchase through,
From memory the Kennedy half dollar was $35 the star was $20 and the 5oz silver was about $600 .999 silver 1 of 500.

Just trying to figure out pricing at the moment. Will the buyer's premium affect me in this case? Hopefully shipping isn't expensive.

Thank you very much again.

Good evening ladies and gentlemen I was wondering if I could get some help please? 


I have recently received a coin catalogue from a coin dealer, and there are couple of coins that I am looking at, and I was just wondering if I can please get some more information about them before I buy? Some are Australian currency and some are American. I haven't ever bought or collected world coins before so I'm looking at starting, and I would just like to find out more about them really and what there value may be currently and moving forward. Hopefully I am in the right place.

The coins that I am looking at are 
2022 Apex Preditor 5oz silver proof 
1964 USA Kennedy Silver half dollar 
USA $1 Star note


All are in uncirculated condition any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much for your time and assistance.

Thank you all for your help and input. I was thinking about getting some uncirculated Red Poppys but I'm not really sure what would be a good price to pay for them?

Good evening ladies and gentlemen, i was wondering if I can get some help please?

I am looking at expanding my coin collection again soon. I don't really know what I'm after or what would be a reasonable price to pay?

So what I'm looking for is essentially something uncirculated that I can purchase, hold for a while and then in 5 or maybe 10 years down the track they would have gained some value, And I could potentially sell and make some money.

I was wondering what coins or notes you would suggest i buy now for their appreciation potential? As well as what I should pay for them? I'd also consider buying coins for their metal value whether it be gold or silver.

Thank you very much for your time I look forward to hearing from you soon. Cheers ?

Quote from: 'gweidion' pid='124546' dateline='1615818729'That is indeed a Lowe Fraser signature combination however not all of them are worth hanging on to. There are a LOT more appearing in circulation now so unless it is in very good condition or a first or last prefix, you can probably just spend it.
If holding $20 isn't going to cause you any significant loss, put it away for the future.

You can check details of numbers/quantity of notes printed here.

Just select 2019 from the drop box.

Thank you very much I did have a quick look and compared to how many were made mine is still a low number in that production so I am going to put that one away I think. Thank you very much again.

Quote from: 'jens coins' pid='124543' dateline='1615802995'If the $20 2019 note is a Lowe Fraser signature combination then it is a keeper.

Thank you for your advice. I am having trouble with the signatures but I believe that is Phillip Lowe's signature at the top.

Hi I am just wondering if I can please get some assistance? I received 2 notes in my change that I feel might be a bit special. I was wondering if I can get a valuation please? I'm trying to work out if it's worth keeping them or just spending them?

The first one is a $20 note from 2019 it's not a double letter but quite a low manufacture number in circulated condition.

Note 2 is a $5 note from 2016 it is a double letter but quite a high manufacture number also in circulated condition.

They both present reasonably well.

Thank you very much for your time.
