In my experience, $1 & $2 Rim Cuds are quite common. I have heaps of both, $2 are more plentiful than $1.

$1 are most common I'd say. Then 20¢. $2 and 50¢ are relatively harder to come by. Then again, maybe its because I tend not to noodle $2, apart from the recent coronation chase.

Still, I reckon $5 is too cheap. They're not exactly as common as dirt, and they are major errors... heck, even Goldy could see one without a magnifying glass! :diablo:

Heheh.... If you don't noodle $2, you'll never find them. :angel:

Haven't even looked at them mate. This is one of the coins that I automatically stash for examination at a later date.

Nice find Kel. Another one for me to keep a lookout for. :yahoo:

Fulvio · October 31, 2013, 10:39:54 AM

Two examples? Cud looks identical...

Nevol · October 31, 2013, 10:41:37 AM
