Hard to tell but I think I see a cud on the rim, can't really be sure. Funny how the obverse pics are clear but the reverse pics are blurry

I received numerous of the Poppy Circ $2 at my pub in Bondi on Saturday 10th November 2012.

Have since received a couple more from other pubs but nothing from retail.

I can't work out the error on the listing. I thought a rim cud as well but the pics are horrible. They even added new pics to 'clear' it up but they are just as bad.

Looks like a common $2 coin to me, no visible error, but who can tell with those dodgy pics? I wouldn't pay more than $2 for it and even then I'd want free postage.

It's just got the very slightest off-centre strike doesn't it? And when I say off-centre I don't mean off centre :dodgy:

Maybe the photos are in focus, and the coin is out of focus ?

Saw it yesterday. Looks like a crock to me. Just goes to show if you put error on a listing then sky's the limit for price.

I wonder what would happen if you put a coin up with no error and told people the error is that the mint "forgot to make an error" is the error (lol).

I checked my coloured ones and I have a similar one, they are common.

what do you mean by that australian coin, was I'd common? where's the 'error'?

Australian coin

Its just the raised rim part of the coin, one part is thin and the other looks a bit fatter, all the coloured coins I had a look at have slight variations I think it is a common thing with the minting.
