Robbie is a sweet treasure. The Mint suggested 23 million was a coin for everyone. I think they should have personally given me one!

I was however gifted one of these hand picked for me so thank you to the giver, it's going in my collection.

Hello,

I just got one in my change. My GF got one a while ago and gave it to me. I always look at my change when I get it, so I can separate the ones worth keeping. I often get the feeling that the staff think I dont trust them though !

I got one in my change today at Aldi in Wentworthville (Sydney), so they are circulating here.

There is a bit of a story to these.

They were supposed to circulate for ANZAC day. But apparently there's been too much recirculated coin coming through, so Armaguard have been sitting on them.

Which really, REALLY pissed the mint off, and they are now reconsidering their distribution arrangements.

That seems odd.

Why would the company keep the new ones, if they are supposed to go out?

I do not think it makes any difference if they sit on $XXXXXX of new coins or $XXXXXX of old coins. (or does it?)

I am not saying that it did not happen like that, but it seems pretty silly for them to do that.

Mobile press at War Memorial would have been fantastic
Armaguard have certainly been supplying eBay resellers with rolls

For Triggersmob:   I sort /noodle $1 coins and I do get some 100 year ANZAC coins.   If you like I shall extract them and when I get a pile, send them over to you.

They will be circulated coin.

Up to you.

this is ridiculous
I have 4 different banks trying to get these for me and I have been through over $15k worth of coins in the last week and a half and not one single 2014 dollar coin!
I am telling you the security companies are looking after their own and releasing them via ebay!
I cant think of any other reason why we have not got any here yet!

I've managed to find 3 so far Serial, so they are out there but definately not in any great quantity as yet.

I tend to disagree with your generalized comment there serial.

My wife and I have secured six bags of 20 coins (three from a movie box office and three from Woolworths checkouts) several weeks ago and I have noodled several during the past two weeks.   I have not secured any bags from banks at all.

When I frequent banks and ask them if they have any they reply "we don't get them".

I noodled one today but the wife has taken it for some unknown reason but any more I find will be offered up to forum members as advised above.

I am not sure where you live but maybe you should go to your local super market and shops and see if they have received any/them.

In the past 10-12 years since I have been noodling I have never, and I mean that, secured bulk "new coins" from any bank.   They have always come from clubs, casinos and local shops.
