Raining today so an inside job was called for. I started sorting out my noodling keepers.
50¢ commemoratives was the order of the day.


Most aUNC, nothing less than EF and quite a few would grade MS.
I have more again of the same -a filing cabinet drawer of loose ones in food containers. Most of those would probably be VF to EF. Will sort out the best ones and cash in the rest. I would say I will reclaim several hundred dollars just with that exercise.
Will start listing them for sale on eBay next week and see how I go. It is pointless just having them sitting here doing nothing.
(If anyone wants any send me a message.)

Then the 50¢ Cof and CoA, 20¢, $1 -about as many of those as the 50¢. Fewer then of 5¢, 10¢ and $2.
Also turned up several bags of errors and NCLT.

Lovely stuff Jeff! It is a real task for the head sorting out the keepers eh!

JeffH

Requires short stints and plenty of coffee -perhaps something stronger if later in the day.
I find it helps to pick one coin and use it as a benchmark to compare to. Then group them as better than, about the same as and not as good as piles.

Good lighting and make sure my reading glasses are clean.

Some nice stuff there Jeff. Muddling my way through the same process and the eyeballs are still spinning!

Nice lot of coins there Jeff.  

Your lucky the draw you have them in hasn't collapsed with the weight of the coins.

It is rather heavy. Took me a little by surprise when I lifted it out of the desk to take the photo -but didn't drop it!

From a change jar today I got a Wallabies $2, a police $2, a repatriation $2, an X $1, a 2019 JC $2 and a 2020 JC 20c.

From a family member's change bowl I got a 2020 $2 (there were two), a 2020 20c (there were two), a 2019 JC 20c and a 2013 (I think) dollar with a small rabbit ear.
