2014 Circ Anzac Dollar with NCLT AL Counterstamp

Goldseeker · November 13, 2014, 04:32:02 PM

For those that bought and have received your AL Counterstamp coins, are your folders showing that plastic film aroung the hole in the folder is lifting.

All of my folders are showing this and I have contacted the RAM about it.

I wait for a response.

Bruce is this the AL or M counterstamps

Goldseeker · November 13, 2014, 05:01:52 PM

At this stage only the AL counterstamp folders.

I shall a picture of what I am talking about.

Have a close look at the bottom scan, the plastic covering is lifting off the folder itself. Looks like a life boy about the hole.

Hey Bruce I just got my delivery of these and they are the same. Some have even popped out of the plastic. Any update on what the RAM says??

I happen to be a bit shirty about these. When they were first announced the RAM said you had to be there to get any. So I jumped through hoops to organise and get some and they have travelled far to get to me (via military personel and been driven across the Nullabor). Then of course there is a dealer allocation and everyone has them.

The quality is also really crap.

Yes, the RAM seem to be changing their tune while you are still doing the dance & they have been like that for a while now. It is really annoying.
Aren't you guys RAM dealers yet? (PP that is)

Nah, been lazy with the paperwork on that one.

What do you need to become a dealer? Can us forum members band together and become one?

Imagine the tooing and froing over gradings as members each have their two bob's worth (so to speak)!!

I think you sort of have to be a business and maybe mostly a stamp & coin business - business number, all that stuff
they (the RAM) probably expect a certain amount to be moved - but there seems to be heaps of on-line dealers - the PP would add a touch of class to the dealerships out there - some are real rough diamonds

not quite so sure about a forum dealership - I think that would be a bloody complicated mess in many ways (to be frank!)

The paperwork was a pain in the butt and they were glacially slow answering questions we had. So we lost interest. Maybe we should get it up and running again.

Geez thats p... poor by the mint workers at the mobile press,they must have been as rough as to tear the folders like that,or the mint has change the quality of the cards & if so that is also p...poor.

Goldseeker · November 20, 2014, 05:58:23 PM

I am still waiting for a response from the RAM re my phone complaint. Although I did get a phone call from them on the night of my complaint and was informed that they will have to wait for the remaining folders to arrive back from Albany.

I just might send a email tonight for a chase in reply.

Will post further info as it comes to light.

Remember the above.

Well good news.

I have just received a fresh supply of GOOD FOLDERS from the RAM this day.

So, if your folder is showing a "lifebouy effect"' about the hole where the coin is viewed, contact the RAM and get replacement folders.

What dealers had allocation apart from Downies Kathryn?

I ordered one from Prospect, and I still haven't received it. They said they were still waiting for their coins. They're supposed to come sometime this week.
