Is there even a big difference between 1 edition?

purplepennyhunter

Usually no but for this issue there are supposed to be big changes. Greg is supposed to have ditched Perth Mint issues. I'm in the dark though and Greg hasn't joined up here although he's been invited.

Quote from: 'Australian coin' pid='3448' dateline='1353281542'Hay do you already have one, where did you get it from?
No, that is part of an image on a 'flyer' I got from Greg.  I usually get my annual Book from VP Coins, as they're not far from where I live.

"From the flyer" Virtually every one of the 4000 plus illustrations have been digitally re-mastered to at least double their sharpness.
In this edition we've added 100 extra pages.
Including....
A complete redesign and update on all the issues from the RAM.
A complete revamp of all the Perth Mint issues including a more reader friendly and chronical listing of all their issues from 1986 to 2013.
A comprehensive revision of all prices for our traditional collecting series including - Proclamation Coins - Colonial gold issues - Commonwealth bronze & silver coins - Internment Camp Tokens - Kookaburra Trial Pieces - PNC's - Olympic Issues - Pre-decimal and Decimal banknotes - NPA issues and much more....
Proudly printed in Australia.
Soft bound $39.95
Hard bound $47.50
Here for a good time, Not a long time.

I cant wait to check it out. Sounds like some decent changes.

Remember last year after Perth Mint screwed him over, he said he was not going to include anything from the golden west?
Maybe they have come to some sort of arrangement, which I think is probably best for both parties.

Cool price, but I asked my local book shop to get one for me.
Then they just phone you when they get it in.
Don’t know how they can post it for $3.
My post office always charges $6.60
For $3 it must be an envelope? With my mail service I don’t think it would get to me in one piece.

Well I guess the issue date is just 6 working days before Christmas.
You would think that Macca would do anything possible to get the book out in November. He seems to be robbing himself of Christmas sales by releasing it so late.

I'd suggest too it won't have the updated mintage to include those in the RAM 11-12 Annual Report.

We were told to pay before 26/11 for a first week in dec delivery. He does this every year and I always have a mad rush to get them all posted not to disappoint for Xmas. Assuming I get books by the Friday before Xmas I will have all my orders posted by the Friday before xmas
