Noodling finds

[Nevol]

Makes the Roo look a bit like it's lower jaw is dislocated.  Nice find! :yahoo:

Hi Goldie, no disrespect intended, but do you think it might be a PMD hit?

The bottom edge of the jaw appears to have been straightened with an upward tilt, whilst the curved bottom of the jaw looks to have been flattened. The gap between the bottom of the flattened section of the jaw and the second roo's back looks the size of a standard gap. There also appears to be some continued damage to the left of the flattened jaw section continuing to the tip of the 3rd roo's tail.

Have found a couple like that of late. At first glance I thought there was some doubling going on but on closer inspection they were just dings.

No offence take Unicorn......

I have re-examined the coin, under a by four magnification, in regards to your statement above and I now have to admit that it certainly looks like a "ding".   The jaw at that spot on a normal coin is rounded whereas on my 2009 "Spew" is square/straight.

I shall now concede defeat on this 2009 Spew Roo that was mistakenly identified by this "stupid" person............

Welcome to the MULE Club.   Now you can officially "Kick A__e" as they say.   Congratulations.   Any idea how many you have examined before that one popped up?

Now here is a scan of some coins I got today noodling.   Coins being 23 years old are in exceptional condition:   Me thinks they come from someone's hoard.......



also in the lot were some Charles/Diana's and The tall Ships pieces, all in exceptional condition.

Well I get about 10 2000's per 500 block and conservatively I would say I have noodled $250k so about 4500 have passed my hands in last 18 mths

Wowsers Serial, nice one!!

[serial]

I know what you mean gold seeker I am also finding batches of old coins in high au condition that I put down to a collection being cashed in. Sad really as they probably were in better condition when cashed in.

[Pedro]

Some great finds there serial and goldy.

What looks like a die crack (maybe?) on a 2011 50c I came across.
