2014 $1 100 Years of ANZAC – The Spirit Lives circulating coin

[Nevol]

Please explain.... if you can, because I'm confused. There are 23 million of this ANZAC coin released, selling for $6.95 each. Yet there are 1 million 2014 MOR's released, selling for $3.95 each. See why I'm confused.

Doesn't make any sense does it? :scratch_one-s_head:

because there is a glut of MOR coins atm thanks to downies releasing the rolls so cheap. give it time for the dust to settle and see which coin end up being worth more.
and the security companies will have to release the Anzac coins sometime! then you will know what glut is

I take my Hat Off to Downies for doing this and making the rolls available at a reasonable price other than going through the eBay "Shysters" BS prices :good:

[serial]

That may be so trout but the question was why are they selling for less than the Anzac coins and that is what I answered. I myself am thankful that downies did what they did as it gave me an opportunity to purchase a sizable amount myself as I think they are currently under valued and will see a greater return than say a term deposit over 5-10 years

I have no idea why the MOR coins are selling for less than the Anzac coins which IMHO are a pretty "MEH" design and are most certainly not scarce with a mintage of 23Mil.
Personally I couldn't collect rolls because I just would NOT be able to stop myself from cracking them open to find that elusive MS66-68 coin that may be hidden within the roll.
The funny thing with rolls is the longer you DON'T open them the less likely you are of finding that "Pristine" coin due to the way they are packed/stored :ok:

I know! I am struggling not to open a couple myself. I may do so in order to send a couple of in the next grading run. But I don't know what to do with the left covers. Most likely just eBay them to onset my cost

You could always send me your second best one :angel:

[serial]

Lil the best 2nd best and maybe 3rd would be sent to the plastics factory. You can have my 4th, just remember I am no emu. You might end up with my best

Just joking Mate, AC sent me a nice coin that I recon will go at least MS64 and I am happy with that in my collection
If you do crack a roll go through them at least 4-5 times before you make a call :ok:

[serial]

yeh I know to do that but it wont make a huge difference. I will go with my gut but in the end I am still an amateur.
I will mainly look for detracting bag marks, rim dings and breaks in lustre.
my offer stands if you need another trout

[interest]

I just need one!!!

[serial]

pm me your details. when I open the roll (in next 2-3 weeks) I will send you one
wait a sec, did you not get a roll?

Would the PNC coin be better grade than rolled coin?

[Cougar]

Good question. I have a PNC and have also wondered if it was any different to the circulated coin. Someone here would be able to fill us in. If it is then its the one to have.

[runway]

Cougar I would hope the PNC coin to be specimen quality ... the coin in the PNC I have has fantastic eye appeal
