Quote from: 'serial' pid='81345' dateline='1446693283'with regards to the 72 low echidna I think the most interesting thing about it is that they are almost entirely found in mint sets only

Are they? I remember someone posting a break-down of their circulation finds and they seemed to have found both without much trouble.

Oh well, I guess if it's lower then it's all about the base .........

As I said before runway. The rotated dies are a striking error rather than a die variety. But if you think Pcgs should recognise them as a variety then your welcome to write to them and send coins for submission. Just don't be upset if they don't recognise them.
Have you got a link Mr T? As I havent seen that and I have never found a low echidna in circulation myself

I don't intend to send any rotated die coins to PCGS at this stage,yeah I realise they wouldn't grade them unfortunately for what they are

I was going from http://www.thesandpit.net/5c_survey/2014_5c_survey.html which was linked in https://www.australian-coins.net/showthread.php?tid=3598&highlight=1987+high+echidna
Maybe my interpretation was wrong but the way I read it was that both were found in circulation but mint sets were low only.

Quote from: 'runway' pid='81352' dateline='1446721014'2001 $1 Federation upsets/rotated die is a variety that comes to mind that PCGS doesn't accept in a general consignment :(

Well if you feel it should be you can write them in a submission, make your case and see what they say. However I see this as an error rather than a die variant as it is to do with how the coin was struck rather than with what dies
How can I do this?

Who in Australia is a PCGS authorised dealer who can send coins to PCGS on my behalf?

I send my own submissions in, it's a bit of a pain in the arse with the paperwork and the labelling But it can be a lot of fun and rewarding in the end :good:

You will have to excuse my ignorance but what on earth is a Reverse "D" ??
