Quote from: 'trout' pid='92925' dateline='1468993391'If RAM gets "Tricky" and adds a "C" mintmark to the coins in the 5 coin set then these could be seen as GB But not the ones being distributed by Woolies at the moment.

Waddaya mean "IF", Batman? I'm assuming that's a given. :dodgy:

That way they really screw up collectors who believed them and waited.

There are No mintmarks on the images of the coins on the RAM website and I would think that they would charge more than $15 a set if they had to make up a new die or to have to counterstamp all of these.

I expect RAM will do a C mintmark of all in another 5 coin set

Why GB collection, it's an Aussie coin? :scratch_one-s_head:

Still very nice, but out of my league. I did buy a couple itty bitty Aussie gold coins a few years ago, but came to my senses. :swoon:

I think in this case GB refers to the subject of this thread not the mother country.

Nevol · July 22, 2016, 08:09:57 AM

Ah yes! :mocking: Of course, please forgive my 'blonde-ness'. Duh!

r9453 · July 22, 2016, 10:01:45 AM

Your plea for forgiveness is entirely unnecessary, have fun!

We could chip in and buy you a bottle of 'artificial intelligence' (black hair dye) if you like. :dodgy:

I just picked up the 2015 Anzac $10 Gold coin for $195 Delivered on eBay for my little collection of these.
The issue price was $300 + postage only a year ago, So these are most certainly in the GB class of coins at the moment :ok:

trout · August 01, 2016, 07:39:48 PM

The 2015 $10 Gold coin arrived today.
Nicely detailed for such a small coin :good:
I also just got an email from RAM that my 2016 annual Silver proof set has been posted :yahoo:

I see from the Aust Post website, you can buy,

160 years of Holden stamps.
50 years Anniversary of Play school stamps,
A B C Stamps, yep the whole 26 stamps but at least Aust post is not releasing all at once.

Maybe it's just coincidence & they don't collude with each other.
not the first time it's happened though, betcha it wont be the last.
