I know that 5000 people are already going just to the Remembrance thing, I was told not to bother parking there, glad im a few mins walk away, so if they all buy 3 coins each that would be the total haha, but I think its the normal 5 coins per pop, not everyone is a coin'e tho.

QuoteDon't think so: "neither of us will buy any more ONE DOLLAR COINS after the year 2014".

the day is a Tuesday and its not a holiday as far as I know, so if I go it might be on a lunch break, or my boss might give me the day off ;)
people stop sending me messages to get you coins, unless you put how many you want, (and not 20 or some large number I am human not a robot that wants to spend my whole day lining up to stamp coins) and all that stuff I wont be getting them for strangers, of course if you are someone I know I might go out of my way to get one for ya xx

This $1 coin is collectable never an investment

Trouble is, comparison of the coins used for the M Counterstamp and the AL Counterstamp are quite different.

My M coins are all marked, scratched and one has three gauges across the neck of the Queen.   The AL coins are quite reasonable and leaves the M coins for dead.

I spoke with the RAM today and they confirmed that both the A M and AL coins are the same as the circulating coins.   Nothing special.

All the coins came from the same bin/barrel as per normal circulating 100 Years ANZAC coins.

At $10 a pop, we were definitely robbed.   Maybe $2 per coin should have been the price.

yes that is why next year I refuse to collect the yearly counter stamp coins, issued at different locations, and stuff, its just not worth chasing them when coin dealers get a allocation anyway, and mintages are not low, they are one step away from minting to pre order.

It's quiet disappointing really that the RAM minted the Anzac $1 coins earlier this year but didn't offer them for collectors in a folder,yet they dig some up for the counterstrikes at inflated prices

I have already aired my views to reps at the RAM and I believe a complaint form was raised as a result.

I can only wait for a detailed response although I did get a phone call last evening about it all.

Thank you to the wonderful person who was able to get me the 2 ANZAC 'M' Counterstamp coins from the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne recently, you know who you are and it's very much appreciated for all the effort you went to, including the wonderful packaging :)
Never, Ever, give up!
