I have found 2010 $1 coins with rabbit ears and spews but this is the first I have come across with both.


And from the same $500 bag I finally found a 2008 with a blob on the 1 and no double tail. That means I now have all the combinations know of the three cuds for that year!   :yahoo:

Nice Jeff. The 2010 has both cuds very well formed  :ok:

$400 of 50¢ yielded a 1985, three ramsheads, ten Centenary of Federation (seven different states and territories) and a few others not worth specific mention.
I thought that a good result.

Went through 1500 x $1 coins yesterday and this one popped up:


The above is the first cold shut I have found in a very long time.

I also found a very tiny 2009 Rabbit Ear.

I just opened a $500 bag of dollars I picked up this afternoon from the local bank -all inside in ziplock bags in $100 bundles; bet Armaguard hates that, but they send them back that way often.
I still had a scale on my desk from checking the ones I returned so I checked the weights -not sure why as I normally wouldn't bother. One bag was 4g overweight so I opened it first. It had 16 x $1 and 6 x $2 coins , including a rather nice Olympic $2.

That is a nice change from the usual ring ins; early NZ, Fiji (and other Pacific Ocean countries), Euro, Philippines and Britain. Somebody must have been in a big rush to get away from work that day!

This is from the same lot I mentioned with some $2 in. I found another $20 bag with $2 coins but didn't pick it up from weighing -17x$1+4x$2=correct weight (within a fraction of a gram).
