As some of you may know, I work for Repco. Recently there was a store managers conference in Melbourne and part of that conference included a trip to visit Sir Jack Brabham's racing car, the BT19 (They started it up too, wish I could have been there).  Repco and Jack had a long relationship, with Repco building the engines for him. At the conclusion of the trip some attendees where given the Sir Jack Brabham 50 cent coins on a card. Some of those made their way back to W.A. and today one of the guys from work decided he didn't need this coin and thought I might appreciate it more.  So I scored this coin for free. :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

Nice work mate...
Collecting coins is not about having the best, but loving what you have ...

Thanks Uni. 
Everyone at work knows I collect coins, so people are always throwing coins at me,
but never one as nice as this. I have 40 years up at Repco later this year, so I guess
you could say I'm dedicated. :)
