The Wreath and Shield design coins are distinctly Australian, Where the St George and the Dragon design is defiantly a Brit design .
The Arab coins are actually slightly richer in gold content than the Sov's :ok:

thanks guys
I thought they were earlier as well
yes, I did understand them to be a trade coin
with many being melted down as well

S.O.L??

I know what S.O.B means
at work in progress notes it's called 'seen out of bed' (or short of breath)
for a long time I used to think, gee a lot of these patients are nasty ones ha ha

EF? Not a bad price if it is. But hey, don't ask me to grade anything, or you'll be SOL! :angel:

I have wanted these coins for a long time now but never had the Coconuts to do it before.
So I reckoned if I am going to climb the tree at least get a good coconut :ok:

I picked up the Sydney mint wreath coin from the post office on my way to this job I am on at the moment.
I should be home Saturday and will post pics then.
It has heaps of lustre and doesn't appear to have much wear on it.
It is a beautiful coin, If I knew how good these actually looked "in hand" I would have bought them ages ago :good:

This is the best I can do with my  iphone :ok:
