I like ram's head coins.

For jeffH:   I received one of those 66 round 50c pieces ages ago when I purchased a handful of those coins from Brisbane and upon examination, I found one with a planchet flaw on the obverse.

Yours is only the second one I have seen that has been reported.

Here's mine:

I was putting some coins into 2x2's from saflips today and noticed this.
Not a huge rotation But a rotated die nonetheless
Pretty hard to spot these when the coin is in a saflip.

Why move coins from Saflips to 2X2s? :scratch_one-s_head:

Why move coins from Saflips to 2X2s? :scratch_one-s_head:

I was putting some coins together for sale on eBay that were the same date and type and had to write a lot number down to be able to differentiate the coins after the sale so that the buyers get exactly what was listed in that lot.
Using 2x2's is far easier than using stickers on saflips :ok:
The coins will be put into 2.5x2.5 saflips still inside their 2x2's when I ship the coins, Giving them double the protection :good:

The 2 x 2 last longer than the flips
A heck of a lot of mine crack and slip in half

And i don't think they are that old
I only have flips now & it's quite annoying

I haven't added any silver coins to my collection for ages,
but this week I received a heap of Mercury Dimes from
Matt in the U.S.

Thanks Matt.

Great coin, great image! :ok:

[Triggersmob]

Thanks Robster.
Also received this U.K. Shilling from Nancy.
Thanks very much Nancy

I've started collecting Sweden in a big way now.

So here are a few early silver one Krona coins.
I like the look of them, a bit like our old shillings.

[redlock]

Obviously, packages from Sweden have finally arrived in Australia  :cool:

Nice coins!

I keep forgetting that this SUBJECT is here as I have an early Queen Victoria Indian RUPEE that I found many years ago during my metal detecting days.

Will have to get it out and post it here for all to see.

Give me a reminder for next SATURDAY will you please.........! (NO NEED AS I HAVE ALREADY POSTED)
