My coin came in a small resealable bag.   No glue at all.

I think that was after the RAM contacted the RSL and asked them not to continue with the glue!

Probably RSL members who had a foot in the door ahead of time.

As I understand it and this is from the Staff at ANZAC House, Melbourne:   The coins were dispatched in bulk to the State HQ Building and distributed to RSL Clubs for sale with cards and envelopes separately.

I understand that many coins were highjacked by certain RSL employees who were in the "know" so to speak.

I can only relay to you what was notified to me noting that only one coin per person was first issued.   Luckily the wife accompanied me to ANZAC House to secure my two.

I hope those buggers that were "In the know" coughed up the extra $10 a coin as a donation when they got the rolls.
Somehow I tend to doubt that they did :dodgy:

Nah, I reckon they would have paid in full. Not cool to rip off the RSL, especially for one of their own.

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

They're appearing in their droves in the Perth area, so I've kept a few aside just in case for that exact reason!

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:

From 3,400 $2 coins from Armaguard, I found 22 of these. So while not exactly rare, I suspect they're being hoarded... I know I'm hoarding them... :)

Not this little black duck either.

I ordered mine last Monday and was told to expect delivery in 10-14 working days so they will be at least another 1-2 weeks away
