Unfortunately my recordkeeping for my error coins is only really up to speed for my noodling over the past 8 months AJ and I am not sure what I have from earlier on :dontknow:

Seem to be enjoying doing more noodling and been too slack to go back and sort them out. The other minor issue is that I am not sure where I have put them! :scratch_one-s_head:

Yeah I hear ya loud and clear on all accounts mate so all good, thought I should have a quick suss of the 2014 $1 and found these so here's something to look for :winkextra:

Pedro

Ok ok you lot are so slack so I better help Pedro and Uni out so here's some more 2014's for ya's and haven't had many but quite a few errors so good to see the mint is still keeping up the high quality that I have come to expect!

ok just done $40 in 10's and still $60 to go but need a little rest first so here's 2 typical errors out of about a dozen coins..so far :dodgy:
nose cud

and '0' on reverse of same coin

and '0' on another so pretty common on most years

and my first "slight" rotated/upset 66 10 cent so pretty happy with that :)



and no I didn't just rotate it in the 2x2 :laugh2:

:yahoo: You're setting that benchmark high AJ, well done, great finds.

That nose cud looks like the one on Pedro's 50c.

Good work with the 2006 SR Pedro.

Nevol

Nice rotation!  I have 3 of those and they're pretty hard to find. :yahoo:

I like the upset 1966 10c AJ. I found one some time ago but the tilt was smaller.

Haven't seen this much doubling on a 1997 50c before:

PMD.
You will see similar marks on plenty of coins. Not sure exactly what the cause is but could make a few guesses -maybe coin handling machinery or vending machines or similar.
Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.
