Noodling finds

[Coins from Vending]

found my first 2013 $1 coin today, also a couple of low 70s 50c pieces, 5 2000 $1 coins, a $2 poppy coin, that's about it from memory???

sadly the rotation is just a sign of my bad photoshop skills

Hehe... you really had me going there... I was thinking "how did we all miss these $2 rotations?" :dodgy:

Very nice die fill. Never seen one like it on these coins. Would you consider parting with it? Perhaps for some Photoshopping lessons? :angel:

It's a 2011 international year of volunteers 20 cent coin.
Quite a nice design and often found in nice condition.
Nice find mate :good:

LOL! Long drive for a cuppa... as Goldy can tell you, I don't go that far for an overseas holiday. :angel:

But maybe Sunday week.. if you still have it.

Rubber gloves? *SNAP* :dodgy:

It's the 10th anniversary of the International Year of Volunteers so IYV+10.

Not even the actual Year of celebrating, just the 10th anniversary, bad idea in my book.

[ausjack]

bad idea in my book

Yes just another good idea from the mint, they've been having heaps of late so as I have heaps of good ideas I wonder if they'd give me a job :laugh2:

Have found a few things as I've had a bit of time to noodle so I'll have to take some pic's soon

[Fulvio]

bad idea in my book.

Wait until they start doing the third anniversary of a decade of celebrations of the anniversary of the international year of irrelevant festivities.

Meanwhile, in other news, just found a massive cud on a 2005 WW2 20¢. Fills the bottom right of the coin, from the rim, through the gap to mum's coat, across the width of her arm. Piccies maybe if I can clear a hole in these stacks big enough for the cud-o-scope... :dodgy:

This coin is well known for the rev rim cud in that position, but your description sounds like you've got a much more pronounced one. Eagerly awaiting the images. :drooling:

I bought an unc one from Eric in 2005 or 2006.
I'll leave him to tell the story of how he got them.

[Fulvio]

Yeah, I have a few from when they were new-ish, but nowhere near thiiiiis big.... "That's not a Trout! That's a WHALE!!!"

As for piccies, if its nice again tomorrow, I might go outside and shoot some. This desk is no better than it ever was.... I even bought a pair of folding trestle tables Masters had on special the other day... now I need to negotiate real estate to use them in.
