Nice selection of foreign coins Mister T.

Thanks for that, though I am not particularly concerned about this one. Not something I would collect.

OK. Well you never know it might come in handy for something else later.

I have not done much noodling for a while, but got a few rolls of coins recently to do a little noodling.  
Found a couple of coloured $2 coins which was nice.

This is not earth shaking but interesting.
I dropped into the Seven Hills (in Sydney)  Combank to get a bit of coin change in $1 rolls.

Once more i found in a roll  a 1984 MS state dollar!
Apart from bag marks and a trace of handling its MS.
Does this this happen to anybody else?

Has somebody been hanging on to a trove of 1984 and finally cashed them in?
Thats 40 years!

I put it with the other TWO found in the last year.

Any clues?

Cheers, Fred

I have come across MS 1984 $1 coins in the past. Usually find them in the till at work.
I also wondered if someone was spending an old coin hoard.

Posted before but a friend managed the local TAB and kept coins for me,amazing what NCLT turned up over the years.

Also UNC early decimals,people must keep/store them and spend when funds are low.

My wife worked at a bank and often brought me NCLT, MS and pre-decimal and foreign coins. Sometimes the MS coins would be a number of identical in the same deposit. Surprising number of 1966 50º¢, presumable cashing in a hoard and not knowing their bullion value.
Also the contents of moneyboxes once they had been counted and credited. She would pay for them from my account and I would roll/bag them to deposit, less any items of interest of course.
One time there was a large number of "grey ghosts" ($100 paper notes) totalling several thousand dollars. a family member of a recently deceased person cashed them in, apparenty he would put his pay in a draw and just takeout some notes when he needed them. I presume if there were smaller notes they were half inched by the family! On that occassion I was allowed to look at them in the manager's office with a check count done before I left. I kept a few MS/consecutive numbers.
Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.
