How are all the noodlers going?

[Mister T]

Oh and I forgot there were a bunch of donation dollars too (2020 and 2021).

Yeah not surprising - cash seems to be getting more expensive unfortunately.

I got another huge bag of change from a family member - $500+ I'm guessing.

I got a 2017 5 Indian rupees, 1997 Singapore $1, a 2014 10p and 2x 2015 10p from the UK (I think a 2014 and 2015 were taped together - possible to feel like a $1), a 1999 New Zealand $2, a 1986 New Zealand 20c, a 2001 Queensland 50c, a 2004 Coat of Arms 50c ramstrike (I think), a 2001 I R B 20c, a 20019 didgeridoo $1, a 2019 A $1, a 2019 S $1, a 2020 donation dollar, 10x 2021 donation dollar, a 1970 50c piece, a New Zealand $5 note (AS 15 165 991) and a US $5 note (2017 A).

Another big sack of coins to go through - I got 1 x 2020 donation dollar, a few 2021 donation dollars, a 2019 A $1, a 2016 rabbit ears dollar, a 2004 big head 20c, a 2005 10 kronor (Swedish I think), a 2009 20 euro cent (French), a 2010 50 euro cent (French), a 2008 2 euro (Belgian I think), a 1990 New Zealand $2, a 1981 New Zealand 20c and a 2016 New Caledonia 50 franc.

Nice haul. If it's a kronor, it will be Swedish. Norway & Denmark use Kroner.

[Mister T]

Yes you're right - it says Sverige.

[Mister T]

Nothing lately but a family member says they got a $2 note recently (someone paid for something in cash and I guess it was all that they had).

[Mister T]

I got a 50c roll, two 20c rolls and a 5c roll recently and all I kept was a 1974 New Zealand 5c piece. Nothing else worthy of mention in the four rolls.

Hilarious our antique coins from over half a century ago are still circulating there!

I watched a video about a UK noodler, who mentioned the banks there are no longer allowing people to buy big bags of coins for noodling. All part of the developed world trying to end the use of physical money in thrall to the internet and electrcity.

Has anyone seen RAM Jumbo bags of coins in yellow plastic.
I got a Royal Australia Mint Jumbo bag of $500 with 2024 $1 AFL coins in it. I have not seen yellow bags before only the clear plastic ones that you can see what coins are in them.
It was dated 18/10/2023 which is before the coins were released in 2024. They obviously printed the coins well before release date and had them in storage.
I have tried to upload a photo but its too big and won't let me attach the image.

[Mister T]

I haven't - is it RAM branded?

[jens coins]

Yes the bag has Royal Australia Mint sticker on it.
It is still sealed up with the time and date and weight on it.

[Mister T]

Hm okay - I thought those big bags were from security companies. Not sure.

A few weeks ago I went through a few bags of change from a family member - I got a 2020 Donation Dollar, a 2016 anniversary $2, a 1970 50c, a 1972 10c in nice condition, a 2000 5 pence, 1 Thai baht of unknown year, a 1999 New Zealand 5c, a 2002 New Zealand 10c, a small 2006 New Zealand 50c, a 1993 United States quarter and a 2002R Italian 1 euro.

1 Thai baht of unknown year,

Use this. Simple.

Ah yep, took some looking to figure where to actually look, but above the denomination - the year is 2552 which apparently maps to 2009.
