Noodling finds

My favourite bank lady (Mrs J H) brought home some coins that were cashed in today.
Six x $10 bags each of 20¢ and 50¢. I haven't opened them yet but have noticed one bag of '66 rounds and two bags that look to be nice, shiny 1970 Cooks.
Will be fun to go through that little lot.

Nice finds Goldie!!

Jeff ..... you are just blessed!! (Must be the tutu).

AJ, that emu is pretty unusual. Maybe it's the Ball Bearing Bird!

out of every $500 bag I'm getting at least $20 or more in 2014 and compared to other years it's easy double the amount so it won't be a low mintage year but like you GS I'll keep looking

NOW come on Jeff, I ask and ask and ask and still no rounds

Should send Mrs J H all the time if she can jag these old coins in good nick :winkextra:

So thanks to Uni it's now the BBB, or 3B :blush:

Shush. Please, best if you don't mention the tutu.
Here is an alternative for you

AJ,
Those rounds are rather grimy. Having a nice soak overnight and a rinse with acetone in the morning to see how they come up.
Then I will have a think what to do with them.

:laugh2: he was always a strange kettle of fish that downer, I was thinking about a visit but now you have me a little worried..ok maybe one day but no tutu or fish net

Be interesting to know how the rounds turn our as I have a few but like yours not in that good of nick.

Is it just the angle of the pic. or is the leg of the filled 'A' in Australia well below the rest of the lettering.?

ausjack · February 28, 2015, 10:29:46 AM

Just the angle Robster, looks the same hight as the rest

Blame the useless cameraman mate :winkextra:

I'm pretty sure he has no idea what he's doing :laugh2:

Very nice AJ!

ausjack · February 28, 2015, 10:37:50 AM

Yeah it's not often you find errors on the APEC Uni but could have been in better nick

Unicorn · February 28, 2015, 10:43:41 AM

Yes indeed. I think I've only ever found a chin + cheek cud and a couple of rim laminations.

I often wonder why these end up in circulation?
