Excellent haul! What's special about the 2015 $1?

It's the missing right back leg on the 3rd roo from the top.

Technically they didn't PPH and I did.  They did find the dollar decade coin though.

Yes, it's the first one we've found.  And the highest grade one we've seen.  It's interesting because I've never looked to closely at them before but it's clear that they are struck on cast planchets.  The fish-tailing and metal flow lines are quite obvious and it's got quite a bit of lustre.  Interestingly it's also spot on for weight too at 6.61 grams.

Looks like Double Bubble Trouble Pedro!! Nice ones!

Gee 2014 must have been "the year of the 50c error". I've near lost count of how many different errors there are. (Or there RRRRRRR for Jeff).
