hum
tricky
the official older rolls had royal Australian mint

these later ones were rolled for the mint (either in house or by consignment) and then they were distributed by the mint directly to dealers

guess it is a matter of which ever one/s is/are deemed to be ófficial'

That does make it rather confusing.  Hopefully it gets well recorded somewhere

The 2014 $MOR roll was offered to dealers by RAM for face value
That is fair in my books,the dealers make little profit with most RAM product

Yes and I thought that the ram rolled them as well?

Just plain brown paper RAM may have commissioned rolling them by third party but doubt it

Simple answer to this issue is to call RAMINT and ask
(as I have done).

RAM don't answer such questions SULLA

Australian coin

ram did have there own coin rolling machine yonks ago, but it was put aside a few years ago, it needed maintenance and cost too much, so now if they do get it done its all 3rd party.
so they don't have there own pretty roll papers that they used to do, it would be whatever the rolling company uses.
the last roll was the $1 mor that was done to butter up there dealers that missed out of the Victoria cross medal allocation.
the mint do do baggies, they show it in one of there clips, so baggies of the same denomination with the colour stipe bags are done at the mint.

They answered when I asked MN.

SULLA

MN said / wrote rolled in-house!

"Thanks for your call earlier. As discussed on the phone, I can confirm that the Royal Australian Mint rolled the 2014 $1 Mob of Roos Coin in-house. There isn't an official mintage of the rolled $1 coins. There are approximately 1 million 2014 $1 'mob of roos' circulating coins being produced."


Where MN states: "There isn't an official mintage of the rolled $1 coins."

This refers specifically to the number of rolls released. Some dealers claimed
they were told at RAMINT meetings that there were only 5000 made / rolled.
RAMINT in the above quote is denying that number.

Sounds legit SULLA thanks for that :)
