Great images thanks keep them coming I appreciate the effort in not only finding and sharing but also the skills in capture for photos

I found a very nice 2001 COF $1 Upset at an angle of 304 degrees yesterday.

A first for a while.

Finding a few 2010 Spew Roos as well as Spew Roo/Rabbit ear combinations and the normal Rabbit ears, nothing spectacular.

[JeffH]

Noodled quite a few $1 coins this week for a haul of;
•11 x rabbit ears (various years but mostly 2010)
•Eureka Stockade C
•Last Anzacs C
•Barcelona Olympiad
•Howard Florey C
•2005 Peace, hat cud
•2 x 2001 Volunteers, rim cud
•1999 Older Persons, rim cud
•1997 "Smithie" lamination flaw (full width of coin)
Not one upset (or mule) but, all in all, not a bad haul.
And enough high grade 'normal' coins to complete three full circulation sets with ones I already had.

[Transferred from another thread that I mistakenly posted this in.
And, Uni, about 2300 coins for 11 rabbit ears. Quite a good strike rate.]

:laugh2: ..... I'd only noticed after I'd replied too .....

That is a great strike rate for 2300 for both the R/Ears and the NCLT, top stuff!

Gee, Jeff have you got a desk at the bank!! Some more great finds. :ok:

I did 600 x 50c pieces today and I found this one:





A good look at the close up view shows that the coins in-print is in the groove.   How did this come about?

Now, this is the area immediately behind the error on the obv:

What a beauty Goldie!!!!!

Well done!

[Goldseeker]

Further to the above, I found two Incuse 50c pieces.

[Goldseeker]

Just finished noodling 500 x $1 and 2000 x 50c coins for the following:

1.   5 x Rams Head 50c's, (noice).
2.   1 x 1996 Sir Henry Parkes Upset, (a first for a couple of years),
3.   1 x 200 COF Upset at 264 degrees.   (Straight into my minute by minute upset album).

A nice haul at long last.

Wow Goldie, you are doing well!

What a great set of finds!

[Ozcoins]

The 50c,  I think is called planchet flaw that has detached.
Nice finds you have been making! Looks like a good strike rate too.
