Also, available will be a straight swap of the red and the orange $2 coins in $10.00 packages.   The $1.00 Counterstamped coins will be at a cost of $10.00, per coin.

Good onya Goldy that's such a generous offer :wavemulticolor:

I had a call from a friend yesterday advising me that the new round of dates for the changeover tour have been released now.

I really don't think that they could have picked a worse day for collectors. Its a great day for the mint in the sense of sales but collectors wont enjoy it. The Torrens parade ground will have 50,000 -100,000 plus people there on ANZAC day. The dawn service will draw in huge crowds also and the march will end at the parade ground. I seriously doubt that anyone will be able to go around more than once and that's even if they get 1 go..

Lining up early will be considered disrespectful to the day also.

I think the better option may be to head to either Mildura, Port Augusta or even Broken Hill. Each is over 4 hours away but will be better than being in Adelaide.

Past years have taught me that this is a massive day in Adelaide.

I will have to consider options with this. It may prove more economical to just buy them from the mint instead of spending 8 hours on the road and a day in lines.

And how's this for a kicker, I am rostered on duty for 3 of the days including ANZAC day!!

What a nightmare...

Now that's one scary thought!!!

I did cheat and read up on the destinations also. That's why I mentioned them. I'm just not that clever to guess them on my own.
