NCLT Winners

[trout]

There is a bit of doom and gloom getting around the Traps in regard to NCLT or what some of us refer to as Grannybait, So lets have a look at the NCLT success stories.
As many of us enjoy this area of collecting it is nice to know that there are certain Grannybait issues that are now worth more than we paid for them when issued :yahoo:

Off the top of my head the 2000 Victoria Cross $1 coin comes to mind along with the 2001 full set of federation proofs.  
I know that there are many many more so add what you consider to be NCLT Winners here :good:

The 2012 Mint set with the colored 50 cents is selling for over $100 .
I remember buying 10 of these, I kept 2 sets and used the rest of them as gifts :angel:
The 2000 proof set with the colored 50c Millennium coin is also valued way above it's issue price.

Although not an official coin the Swan/Goose dollar meets all the criteria for grannybait in Spades.
With an issue price of $13.50 these are now valued at $1500+
The 2008 Saint Mary Mackillop ali bronze Dollar is another quiet achiever :good:

The Yarralumla and the 2005 world heritage 50c that came on PNC's are more "Winners"

Although not an official coin the Swan/Goose dollar meets all the criteria for grannybait in Spades.

Did anyone ever re-mint these?

Did anyone ever re-mint these?

The same design was used on a 20c coin.
I can't remember the date or where I have put the coin :dash1:

What about the Overprinted Folder(s) for HMAS Sydney 11 coin, "S" Mint Mark and the overprinted folder for the Eureka Stockade, "E" Counterstamped coin, issued to VIP's at the Eureka Centre in Ballarat some years ago.

I am a bit surprised that nobody has mentioned the 1966 Proof set yet, Or the other earlier dated Proof sets.
These are very popular and sell for many times their issue price :good:

I've gone through some of Eric's old coin magazines, and if you picked any of these up in the 80's you wouldn't be any better off, you would probably struggle to make your money back on them (and if you take inflation since then into it, you'd have made a loss)

ALL the Proof sets from the eighties had Huge Mintages.
From 1966-1974 the mintages were quite small 10.000ish and from 1975-1979 the mintages ranged from 55,006 in 1977 and 21,200 in 1976.
In the Eighties the mintages ranged fro 60,000 odd to over 100,000.
This would account for them being  low value sets.

Bit of a fan of some of the gold coin designs
