Likewise. People think I'm nuts, but I keep them even if the letters aren't all gone, like with AJ's tax fills.

And speaking of fills, AJ, why have you started trimming the quote tags so we can't tell what's quote and what's reply? You need to leave the [] tags in place, mate. With the quote before and the /quote after the bit you're attributing. Like so (minus the spaces):

[ quote='Unicorn' pid='45506' dateline='1396401541' ]
...edit this bit down as short as you like, but leave the tags intact...
[ /quote ]

Or you can even remove the name, pid and date fields if you like, say when you're quoting an external source:

Quote"You want the truth? You can't handle the truth!"

It is cool, yeah. I thought "cold shut" from that pic, but its a bit on the small side...

Nice cud on the legend too.. most of them never made it past the bubbling pre-cud stage. And isn't it funny how only certain coins seem to have cleaning scratches?

ausjack · April 02, 2014, 10:34:01 PM

I'll try and get a better pic tomorrow in day light and yes it is funny how it's only some coins that get the polish lines

Went noodling today through 500 x $1 and 2000 x 50c coins and ended up with 8 x 1966 50c pieces at face value.

A lady tried to put the 1966 50c pieces through the counting machine and they got caught up in the reject chute but didn't fall down into the pickup slot. I was there as the bank lady opened the covers and I saw the round fifties siting there. She allowed me to take them and I bought them for 50c each over the counter.

I am a happy man.

Unicorn · April 03, 2014, 06:07:45 PM

You are blessed Goldie! What no incuse? :angel: I suppose the 8x66 make up for that eh!

so were these a customers' coins? the customer said you could have them for the 50c each? really?

Pedro · April 03, 2014, 09:45:23 PM

Had a bit of a 50c and $1 noodle but got a sinking feeling pretty quickly:

First bag of 50c - mostly 2000 Millenniums
Second bag - mostly 1998s
Third bag - mostly 2004 Student
Fourth bag - mostly 2005s (and not a cud in sight - impossible!) .. and so on.

Nett result:

- 1982 aUNC (the previous noodler must have some nice coins if this was a cast off!)
- 2001 NT
- 2012 double dot

Dollars were no better. A heap of 1996 and 1997s.

Not quite. The customer had loaded them into the counting machine and the coins had been held up inside the same. I just retrieved them when the bank teller opened the doors on the counting machine. The coins were the banks so they allowed me to have them at face value.
