Went and got my usual $30 for noddling this week and didn't spot the NCLT until my son was going through the coins picking some for himself, I had to jump in and grab it before he could.

My first NCLT:yahoo:

2005 Gallipoli $1 C mint mark

My older son is 7 1/2.
The story is, we got my son a 50 cent Scholastic book and then a $1 book. We completed them and that was that. Then my dad got my son a Predecimal album and my dad has been filling up the album for my son with his spare coins. My son probably has a more complete pre decimal collect than me.

This all got me going again and I'm back into my predecimal collection and any upgrades I do I pass on the spares to my son.

Then my younger son (5 years old) also has some of my handed down Dansco albums.

So everone is happy, except for my wife.

That's what I would call a snow ball effect.   That's good.

Consider yourself reported to the Super moderator. :shok:
Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.

SWEET, well done GS :good: but it also means I don't have a one off :( I still hope to find more and looked at over $100 in 2014 so far only to find one so could be a bit rare :good:

Oh and I named it the MEGA bubble :winkextra:

Yes J, I have searched may thousands of 50c pieces sin=ce you advised us all of the bubble presence and this is the first I have found.   I suppose I have looked at 500 odd approx. 2014 50c pieces in my noodling so one in 500 is not a good thing.

I will continue noodling and report any other finds if and when I can find some.
