Dollar coins

[Fulvio]

I am unsure what "shallow" means :ok:

Taking that E mm as an example, what ones do you have?
As far as I know, and unless there is a third type, there are heavy and mobile press versions. Do you have both?

I have lots of mobile press coins and the MM is "Incused".
The privy and MM are not.
I am hoping that the list means "Mobile press" coins because I have NO intention of adding errors or variety's to this collection ( It's hard enough as it is to get all these coins in MS63 or better) and the mobile press coins are always available eventually.
I only started to "Get serious" with the $1 25mm coins a couple of years ago and it has been a learning curve all the way, there is ALWAYS some coin that you discover and that is what makes these coins so bloody interesting and challenging :yahoo:

Still waiting for Goldies input :angel:

I am trying to copy your list and print it off with no success.   That way I can erase coins from your list that you have and add to your list, the coins you don't have but I do.

If someone can advise me of how to print your list from the forum, that is a start.

Cut and paste it to "Word" and print it from there , It worked for me :ok:

About time mobile press coins are taken seriously the early dates hard to find and identify hey Fulvio have you got a list of these for members to look out for?

Rather than Word, use a text editor. For PC users, you already have Notepad. Mac users have TextEdit, though there are much better alternatives for both systems.

Why not Word? Because its a word processor, which produces incredibly bloated files containing way too much info, as many have found to their consternation and embarrassment. Try this: Write the word "Hello" in both a text editor and a Word document, and save it. Compare the file sizes, then open the word doc with a text editor and have a look at  what it contains. You will be horrified.

They've always been taken seriously, with values generally 3-5 times the mass-produced ones.

No, I don't. Mainly because I sort of lost interest when they screwed up the whole mobile press operation a few years back. Its now a joke in my opinion, as are the prices they charge, so I no longer bother. But I have no doubt others could post a comprehensive listing.

With all due respect, most of us don't care about the file size.  We just want to get the work done.-John

[runway]

Well said triplewitch and IMHO some hidden agendas

[Fulvio]

IMHO some hidden agendas

None at all. Simply a matter of the right tool for the job.

FWIW, I also get upset about using screwdrivers as chisels, micrometers as hammers, and people who post pictures of words instead of the actual words.

If you hold down the left click & run over what you want printed,it will/should all turn blue,then right click & a list comes up,select print.

81 2004 Eureka Stockade E C/stamp Shallow

Shallow? Portable press you mean? If so I've got a couple that were destined for Goldy that never quite made it.

Yes, portable press, I presume the so-called shallow coins (as in weakly struck?) were made at the various national venues.

I used the term shallow because its referred to here:
The Australian Coin Collecting Blog

I'm not sure if they should be included in this particular list. Essentially, aren't they the same coin as the (much higher mintage) "RAM and Dealer Sales"?

I will try and get the "Shallow" coins but if I can't it won't break my heart
If I ignore them then I will only have 25 more coins to get, Less if I ignore the Ethel Pedley and Dorothy Wall multi dated coins :angel:

25 is getting much closer to the objective. :yahoo: I personally, couldn't ignore the "multi-dates" :fie: Having said that they are among the 40 or 50 I don't have. :acute:

[Goldseeker]

I feel sure that if one a "complete" set/collection of $1 coins, then one must also include all the Portable press/Shallow coins as well as the all the baby set $1 coins.   Remember that the baby set coins do have date changes.

Remember that the baby set coins do have date changes.

That's all the change on them tho, Lazy Beggars could have designed a new coin for each set instead of just rehashing an old design and changing the date :dash1:
