Quote from: 'rollycoins' pid='114811' dateline='1523283695'Here are photos of 6 coins that I have. I've placed a black line going across the horizontal midline of each coin (am aware some coins are upside down - but shouldn't affect the rotation) and you can take a look at the orientation of the poppy's petals relative to that. The flowers appear to be rotated at random and are also not printed exactly centre as well.

Thanks there is differences good photos :heart:

Also the Remembrance Day coins, the Olympic coins, well, basically all the coloured $2 released by the RAM in the last couple of years.

I wonder if the RCM are going to sue all the mints from 'other; countries that now have coloured coins. Eg. USA, UK Royal Mint, China to name just a few.

Interesting to see how the Red Poppy $2 has now reached more demand than the Purple $2

Yep. The red poppy $2 is still climbing in price (well on the way to doubling the average sale value for last year) while the purple $2 is showing modest growth in 2018. The red poppy PNC is also going very strongly.

I ordered 2 sets of the $75 coloured coin folder from RAM 2 weeks ago but have not even received notification of shipment which is very slack
