Noodling finds

[trout]

Just starting in on another batch of florins and found this 54 commemorative with a few planchet flaws on the obverse.

I am still "Noodling" through about 4kg of bullion florins.
So far I have found the laminated 1954 coin and have separated about a dozen baggy uncirculated 54's.
I got 15 round 50c coins with this batch and most of them show feint double bars.

Looks like you're having lots of fun! :good:

Very nice trout :good:
Ok here's a few of my more recent finds, a few cuds on the one coin, look at the roo and the long jumper's head.

now here's two pic's just different angles, think it might be a coldshut but a decent size for a change
one between the swimmer and long jumper

and one from the long jumpers arm to his feet
 
and lucky last, don't want to give all my secrets away for Uni :mocking:
a nice little 2004 die crack

Thanks Pedro, better luck finding error than picking bloody lotto numbers :blink:

The RAM very clearly helps us out with the errors, Tatts not so much :laugh2:

:laugh2: yes very true Pedro, one day well crack it mate :good: well I hope

[Unicorn]

Lovely work AJ! Great die crack.

Do you think the second one might be a strike through oil/grease?

One for you to ponder ......

[ausjack]

Yes it could well be Uni, hard to tell coldshut or oil fill sometimes. That's a nice fill mate :good:

[trout]

Looks like the press ran out of "Puff" on that one Uni .
The die could have benifited  from a  it of a scrub as well

[Unicorn]

That's a nice fill mate :good:

They tell me that Lizzie and Phil are a couple and often seen together :winkextra:

[Pedro]

:laugh2:

Nice coin too Uni!

A couple of recent finds:

2012 50c - there have been a number of coins with many cuds scattered around the reverse design but this one I think has the most that I have seen. Here's some sample sections of the coin.



I don't have any others where there is such a large cud next to the 5.





2014 $1 ANZAC - cuds/fills in the corners of the "A"s and "Z".



Have picked up a 1985 50c in each of my last two noodles so very happy with that. :yahoo:
