Nice going Goldie.
Not much for me this week. All I think worth mentioning is a pigeon pair of 2014 50¢. A coat of arms and an AIATSIS. The AIATSIS is in top condition; better than any I got from a $10 security bag.

I know this is a bit dorkey, but I have only found in circulation a 2014 5c, I have friends that have sent me- a colour remembrance $2 a AIATSIS and the 100 years Anzac coin,
can people help me fill in a 2014 set of coins from circulation,
don't need anything special just if ya find something put it to one side.
I think my mum said she found a 20c but not sure,
anyways not in a rush or anything
just wanting to know what was released into circulation
so I can make a set to sit on my work shelf :)

Well, maybe not much last week but kicked off this week well!
Having my Sunday post-lunch coffee I thought I would start on some $1 coins I have to noodle.

In short order I turned up two 2005 Peace hat cuds. One small and one large -looks like progression of chip in the same die. They are in a slightly different position than I remember seeing before...maybe two dies have had similar problem? When I get a chance I will dig some others out and get some pics if my speculation is correct.

Then again, maybe the cud queen already has this covered. Come in Nancy.

Here's my first noodling post.
A bit of a mixture. I like the HMAS Sydney as I doubt there are many as well worn as this one.
The 2000 mule is definately the most memorable and I thought I might have been dreaming when I woke up the morning after noodling it.
The 5c has no edge reeding so I assume that's an out of collar?
The $2 really intrigues me, not sure what to make if it. It looks a bit like a mule and reverse is quite faint. Edge has very very faint reed. It almost seems like bad planchet (its a bit thinner than normal).

I'll start putting some more up individually with better pics but mindful of not spamming the thread.

If you have more finds like that don't worry about spamming the thread. Keep them coming; the more, the merrier.

Nice Mule!  The 5c does look like an out of collar, what year is it.  The $2 are pretty common with what looks like a second edge, not sure what causes it, maybe slightly off centre, but so many like it, it's just a spender.  

Looking forward to further piccies. :biggrin:

A nice bunch there Dave.

It's an unusually centered mule ...... any chance of a closeup pic of just it next to a standard 2000 for comparison? I'm sure it's a mule, but just really curious about how the double rim is only just over half the circumference of the coin.
