[ausjack]

found this thing earlier, anyone wanna guess the date

[Australian coin]

1980 something

[ausjack]

:laugh2: your a trick mate, I have looked at it from all different angles and can't see anything there, think it might just might be an oil fill but I'll have to get someone else to have a look to confirm

[Australian coin]

its a 50c

[Pedro]

Not a lot to choose from in the 80's once you take out the years where they were only in mint sets or were commemoratives.

Any differences in the Queen's head over those years?

Pedro

[Ozcoins]

Yes 1985 onwards was a new design.

[ausjack]

sorry it's not so good as usual but here's a bigger pic, yes there's only a few it can be and that 80 to 84 but I think it might be an 80

[Pedro]

Suppose you looked for a double bar AJ?

Pedro

[ausjack]

yeah and even looked for a bubble, but it has neither :winkextra:

:yahoo: love ya work mate :friends:

:laugh2: you have to look harder hon, suss the 2012 20 cent you have above and look at the top of the '0' for some squiggles and I think there might be some on the 2013 if not yell out and I'll find one of them as well and another is chogm and look at the R in dollar and you'll see a weak strike (and yes very hard finding errors on chogm's), nearly every coin has multiple errors, I should have told you about them all but I thought it would be more fun for you to look and go OOOOOOO and I'm so stoked that you didn't have some so now I'm working on the next batch so sorry for holding out but I hope it was worth me keepin me big mouth shut :winkextra:

And see, they think I'm full of it when I say I find melts and things like that all over all sorts of coins so I'm glad some one else can confirm that I find what I say I find, unlike some people here I am pretty honest

I'm sure I have some 5 cent melts as well somewhere so I'll try and find them for you :good:

Oh and what did you think of the packing and being able to just pop them out and was it ok as in no coins come loose? Chees AJ
Oh that was the '2' sorry and not the '0' on the 20 cent

[trout]

These came from my change in my workbag, Nothing spectacular but it shows that these are still out and about :ok:

Another 2001 CoF $1 upset last night -pretty well same angle as two others I have found.

My source of $1 coins for noodling is shrinking! Local laundrette banks around $1200 to $1500 at least every week (sometimes twice). They have just upgraded their dryers and they now take $2 coins; last banking was $700 of $1 and $500 of $2. No doubt they will get new washers soon and they will probably be $2 coins only as well.
Is it worth the time to noodle the $2 coins? Not as many varieties as other coins and only two commemoratives (see trout's post above).
