Coloured $2 Circulating Coin (CLOSED)

[runway]

sorry I am lost , there a new coloured $2 coin but nobody can order one from the mint?
confused??? what is the story?

The coin is only available from the RAM in packs of 5, I think,  by phone, one to a customer.  You can order if you can get your call through, but if you don't get through, you are put on a call back list.  It may be a while before you are called back, and that doesn't always happen. -John

Robbiegirl - must be the operator you spoke to - if I am reading this right! I asked whether I could pick the coins up (albeit using a relative) and the RAM said that was OK. I just need to give them the details of the person collecting the coins.

Caller must be a registered RAM Customer first.....when you get through, ask the person to register you.   Then you can order the bag of coins immediately.

I don't know Robbie what benefit cranky is going to be, you'll have already paid your $8 and received them in the mail.

cranky = more coins.  ? Yes please
cranky = Robbie with migraine no thanks

they do change the rules on the day those guys
they drive me nuts

I reckon they should give me the job of being in charge of public sale events
they couldn't organise a two door du..y at the country races

I went my local Westpac branch on Friday to get some change for the business and I got handed over a bag of shiny $2 coins. So I took a a few out and they were all 2013! I got incredibly excited until I flipped to the reverse side. Got my hopes up for nothing...

Don't be disappointed. Mintages are unknown, and they could well be rare.

I've never seen the RSL circulating non colour 2 dollar coin hope this one gets to here this time wish I had contacts in a bank

Not really circulating, since the only way to get one was to donate $10 to the RSL. Finding one would be like finding a VC. Oh wait, I did that... :angel:

That was a total fiasco :dash1:
The coins came on a card stuck to it with glue.:s
Where are these sellers with the "Rolls" of these coins getting them when the only way to get them was from the RSL :dodgy:
