Looks great Trout!

Times are definately tough and a lot of money boxes and sock drawers are getting emptied I think.

(Now all you have to do is find a wavey like that!)

I have noticed more early 20¢ and 50¢, in very nice condition, turning up in my noodling. Definitely seems to be more of them floating around lately. So, keep an eye out -they aren't worth much but it is good to find a better coin than is usually seen.
Here are two I have found in the last month (way better than the usual '66)...

Those are both London die coins

JeffH · July 20, 2013, 02:57:54 PM

Well spotted.
I have about equal number of London and Canberra for these. Just sorted them out.

This little bloke is the best I've found so far so it can go away for a little bit

ausjack · July 30, 2013, 11:38:15 AM

:yahoo: feast ya peepers on this, my first one and what a cool one as it stood out like dogs

It's funny as I was looking at a coin from the 80's and one from the 90's and thought that the heads don't line up and then I seen this and looked again and again and again and thought..yep, it is :swoon:
So what's it worth, and as usual sorry for my crappy pic's

Australian coin · July 30, 2013, 11:56:19 AM

cool pic, its a rotated 2001!, I don't think I have found anything like that, tho I rarely check for rotated coins, only the 2010 50c is the one I know to look for

Unicorn · July 30, 2013, 11:59:06 AM

What a beauty AJ :yahoo:....... have not found one of those either!!! Not sure on the value but I'm sure someone will know.

trout · July 30, 2013, 02:33:50 PM

Nice find AJ , Well done mate :yahoo:

purplepennyhunter · July 30, 2013, 02:42:44 PM

Hey cool, very nice.

markn · July 30, 2013, 04:33:10 PM

Great find AJ. The last one of those I saw sell went for $150 with one bid. PPH and I will give it a nice home if you ever want to sell it

ausjack · July 30, 2013, 06:55:01 PM

So Mark calls first dibs

and thanks mate, I haven't had a really good look yet but couldn't find any so they must be pretty special

Goldseeker · July 30, 2013, 08:22:11 PM

Ausjack: That is the one and only one I still have yet to find. I have found two of the 2010 rotated 50c pieces but not found any 2001 rotated 20c although I do hold one in my collection.

If you found that one recently, congratulations, a nice find.
