Very nice. I'm thinking die clash maybe?

And that last one looks like dirty dies perhaps?

You're doing fairly nicely there AJ. :yahoo:  

My comments follow:
Emu tail cud, seen it, I've got  just 1 (I think)
Major melt, probably seen it, depending on the year
Bar behind emu, can't remember ever seeing it, but like Fulvio said, could be die clash, but I think only if 85, 93, 96 or 97
82 inside leg mark, can't remember ever seeing it
nose cud, melt down cheek, probably seen it, depends on denomination & year,
fat millennium letters, fairly common, got heaps somewhere
die crack down the emu's back, can't remember ever seeing it

So some of your finds may well be new discoveries.  :wavemulticolor:

:yahoo: and some might soon be yours mate :friends:

ok so just had a suss, 80 for the tail cud but I'll have to find the other one I have to see if same date.
yeah melts are common on anything after 99 and same as the face melts.
the bar behind the emu is 79.
die crack down back is 78 :good:

:laugh2: no comment

no no no NO NOOOOOOOOO :cray: see see what I mean about getting crap coins all the time, my first rotated 2010 and just look at it :( But also found an other die clash so I'll be back with a scan or pic shortly :)






hope this scan works but it's between the "0" and the emu's leg just below the shield


better pic sorry and it's 2010 Uni :)

Mark and I went through about $1,000 at the pokies last night. He found nothing whilst I continued my winning streak (I seem to have luck on my side this week) and found my first 2001 Fed Upset -9 o'clock, 2010 rabbit and a 2000 HMAS Sydney Cmm.

That's the spot I look for AJ. I think most years from 2004 (from memory). There's also a couple of different shapes I've noticed which has me a little puzzled. Will hopefully get them sorted soon so I can see what years are involved.

Well done PPH! Noodling is such a great past time.

Ozcoins

Congratulations AJ on the rotated 50c. They are a favourite of mine.

ausjack

Yeah that'd be good Uni and thanks Oz, mate are they hard to find as I must have gone thru thousands and thousands of coins to find one but now I have one I only have to find one better :good:

Cold shuts, die clashes, (E of PENNY) and leg of roo, gouge under letters, almond shaped mintmark.!!:scratch_one-s_head:

Your getting a lot better in the shed Robster, love how you got it to look like it's under the letters :laugh2: Sorry mate, nice find :friends: So what's the funny circle on the roo's nose, is it a water mark and just above that near the rim looks like a little 5

Robster

Yes, a watermark and a tiny cud right on the end of the roos' nose. Look like he is poking his tongue out.!! :angel: The five is a couple of small dings.!!
