Dollar coins

[Fordprefect]

Good luck on your quest, the Gallipoli 2005 "G" is tough.:angel:

You do realise most of the forum has these, and most of the others as well, right? Heck, for the right money, even *I* might be tempted to let go of one...

Obviously the Trout dosn't.:idea:

Looks like all my eBay dollars are going on dollar coins instead of sov's................. ( again) :dash1:

NO matter, I am freaking determined to get this set complete in the end.:ok:

Do you have any MYO's?
I can search my stash for ya. There was a time before they switched to ANDA shows when I would get 100 of each. I also swapped large numbers with other forum members, as did other people.

I have no doubt we can get you off to a flying start. Its just a question of how much people are prepared to accept for them. But it would be less painful here than on the open market, I'm sure.

I just did an ebay search for '2004 eureka' and out of the 50 or so results, I don't think any were MYO. There was one with no mintmark for $5.5k.

Thanks Mate :dash1:
Jesus NOW fulvio will really tighten the thumb screws :cray:

[Fulvio]

There was one with no mintmark for $5.5k.

Yeah, but he doesn't do errors.

I'd put the E in the same price range as a G. Last time I checked, years ago they were pushing $50. Most others should be available around the $15-20 range I would think, with some exceptions of course.

[r9453]

Yeah, but he doesn't do errors.

Yes that's right. I was thinking it might roughly correlate to accumulator's  rotated 2013 'B'?

[trout]

Yeah, but he doesn't do errors.

I recon you would be spot on with that assumption :good:

[accumulator]

Thanks Bob, i'll go check it out.
Looks like you've got a job ahead of you Trout,good luck !

[Unicorn]

Fulvio, while you're busy looking into Trout's list, just a quick query. Back a few weeks you mentioned looking for rotated Year of the Outback $1s.

Did you ever find one?

[trout]

Looks like you've got a job ahead of you Trout,good luck !

You have to love a challenge, It makes Victory taste SOOO much sweeter :yahoo:
BTW I truly hope you do well with that 90 degree rotated mintmark, It couldn't happen to a nicer bloke.

[r9453]

I'm still trying to get my head around the difference between the MYOs and the 'heavies' as Fulvio referred to them. Here's my 2004 Eureka 'M' (sorry just could not capture a decent image so scanned it instead):



Originally, I thought this was a counterstamp, I think Fulvio called it an overstamp, which would be the same thing?

Now, I assume this is not a MYO since I only paid $3.25 for it at a dealer. Therefor its not a c/stamp but was made at the RAM from a specially prepared die and in fact its a mintmark?

Has anyone got a side by side picture of an MYO and its heavy brother?

[trout]

I have found that the more you get "into" these coins the more you have to learn.
That is a GOOD thing IMHO. It makes the experience far more interesting :yahoo:

[r9453]

It makes the experience far more interesting

:i_agree:

I think a lot of my misconception was based on this:



I assumed this applied in regard to the MYOs and the heavy dudes. But in fact it only applies from more recently, say 2008? Before that its a different story?

Edit: This was the only 2005 Gallipoli MYO at Ebay I was hoping the difference would be obvious. :dash1:
