I would not be surprised. This turned up in tonight's noodling session;
Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.

and after all the money people spent on then to spend them for 20 cents, there's some smart people around that's for sure :blink: Nice find Jeff :good: a few more and you'll have the set :)

Once people decide the coins won't be of significant value in the future, they will spend them.

I feel it may be more Newsagents breaking open stacks of these to circulate them. I've had a few newsagents offer up boxes of these for $2 to $4 each coin to which I was not interested. One had several hundred coins.

Im more excited to find some in my change than any of the ones i bought... whats wrong with me :o

Nothing. In my opinion a 'CLT'* coin is better and what I look for and I steer clear of NCLT.

* Circulating Legal Tender that was previously an NCLT coin. It now has a provenance -used for what coins are meant for; making a purchase.

I think i like the mystery of it all.. when, where, why.. .did it enter circulation.. how many unknowing hands did it pass before i plucked it out of my change :)

I figured i wouldn't be the only one ;)

There used to be someone who would deliberately let loose some NCLT coins on a regular basis, often Mint Marked ones.  I can't remember who it was though, or whether it was a member of this forum or its predecessor. :scratch_one-s_head:

I just picked up 3 sets of these including the albums for under $50 for my Grandkids .
I did say that it wouldn't be long and these will be knee deep at the Tip :)

Still heaps around... few newsagents still trying to flog these off on ebay.

More being shown on FB as being found in the pond so might be able to get the set from noodling :)
