Interesting, thanks for your comment runway.   I will send my email off to the RAM later this evening.

[ausjack]

any more news on the 84 dollar or still too early and no reports yet.

AJ we've hit a brick wall. When we do have any news I'll be sure to email you personally :dance2: I'm sure there's an answer, or maybe there just isn't an answer.......

[ausjack]

thanks PP, yeah there's many mysteries in this great universe but hope this isn't one, good luck hunting

...there's many mysteries in this great universe but hope this isn't one

Quantum Mechanics... that's the answer. Things can be everywhere at the same time.:angel:

[ausjack]

there's question that even that won't answer..where did the gas come from in the first place is one of the bigger question that I have and they don't seem to worry about the small parts like I do :scratch_one-s_head: I think there's a few thing that are what I'd call "a phenomenon" and you'll be lucky if you can ever explain, but be careful or you might go mad thinking about these things :tease:

[Fulvio]

...what I'd call "a phenomenon" and you'll be lucky if you can ever explain...

Yeah, but... will it fit into a 2x2? :angel:

[ausjack]

I don't know, I'll go on to that with thinking :scratch_one-s_head:

Over to you RAM then I guess?
RAM has no one to authenticate I believe,would they send it to Edlins for appraisal since they are official valuers of RAM?

there are several people who value for the RAM
I do know the person who has recently done a type of valuation for the RAM that but he is not Edlins

you have to know what they are valuing
some value the gold stocks that are dotted in banks across Australia
some value the actual RAM collection
some value a particular collection
some can comment with authority on authenticity of coins such as, the proof 1930 penny  

I do know a person who does authenticate the Australian rarities, but he doesn't work for the ram strictly speaking

authenticating a particular coin that is not a listed coin but rather an error or mule is another matter and i'm not sure of the valuers who would/could do that

it's knowing who in the business has the knowledge and the credibility for these matters  

but again, the RAM may very well deal with these decimal errors but my guess is that they would steer very clear of it,  as it is an admission of funny business going on in the minting rooms

[triplewitch]

I don't know about the funny business.  You're talking about someone intentionally striking the coin on a wrong planchet.  I don't know enough about the minting process to know if it could happen accidentally. I think they would want to know in any case, but surely any perpetrators in this instance would be long gone.  My concern if there has been any funny business would be that they would claim that the coin should not have left the RAM and confiscate it.  There are some coins rumored to exist in the US that have never surfaced because of this possibility.-John
