Quote from: 'lacey' pid='31814' dateline='1382409212'So am I right in saying the coin I have with a plain 'C' came from the MYO press in Canberra?

please just a simple yes or no/

No.  It can be the production press or the MYO.

Thanks mark

Quote from: 'Fulvio' pid='31829' dateline='1382411571'Since portable presses have been used in Canberra, it is therefore possible to get three different coins which are all ostensibly the same.

They were not used in Canberra in 2011.  The only two alternatives are the gallery press and the production press.

is the coin in the coin folder that came with the MYO coins?
do you have a picture of the coin?

I thought that others had supplied an answer but...

OK, here is my answer.

The plain "C", not in a circle or square was either minted on one of the main floor production presses or on either of the two Visitor Gallery Presses.

If the coin is in a RAM's Head Folder, then was minted on either of the two Visitor Gallery Presses.

If the coin came from the Four Coin Foldered Set then the coin was minted on a production press.

good explanation
I remembered that I had sent that coin over to Lacey from the MYO gallery
that is why I asked her the extra questions

this is a photo of the MYO - gallery press C mintmark 2011 RAM $1
don't know if that helps

Mint Visitor Gallery has 2 "Mint You're Own" coin presses and same coin is in the packaged set

I did wonder that

so the answer is - there is no difference
doesn't matter which packaging the coin originally came from  i.e off the shelf packets of the  4 or 5 or from the gallery presses

Does anyone know the mintage of 2011 Rams Head $1- coin from Mints Gallery Presses where you mint your own coin, not standard C Mintmark?
I have looked through RAM Annual Reports for 2011 & 2012 and cannot locate the coin mintage.

Thanks

Probably a bit of a late reply but this is what I have found ....

So looks like the Gallery Press mintage was not recorded as far as is known.

All this stuff is on en.Numista.com.
