Prefer more positive comments on this post re $1 coins

:agreed:
Although I do ask why your post is so terse and UN enlightening :angel:
I am the OP on this thread and comments like yours should actually be reserved for me :ok:
As I actually enjoy collecting my coins and sharing views, Ideas and jokes with fellow members I would NEVER post a comment like that.

Relax , take the thorn out of your foot and take a few deep breaths, You may just "Get It" with a bit of practice :ok:

The forum IS about coins, It is also all about information sharing, Ideas and simply having fun with this awesome hobby.
That is Why this is a forum and not just simply a coin database :ok:

Yes. Didn't appreciate the smart a**** comment from above telling me to get of the grass not fun at all when being attacked

[Fulvio]

not fun at all when being attacked

Attacked? That's not being attacked. Those of us who survived previous incarnations saw REAL attacks, and they look nothing like that, trust me. Not that you'll ever see it here, of course. None of us want to revisit those times, which is why the friendly banter is such a big part of who we are here.

As Trout said, this is not just a database.

Hope so Fulvio we will see...

[interest]

Please tell me there will be no more 2013 dollar coins released.

Just out of curiosity how many of our members actually do have the complete set of 25mm Dollar coins ?
I'm not talking about errors  but all the circulation and nclt coins :ok:

I am sure I am very close to having them all.   Coins in folders ans well as out of folders.   From mint stress, baby sets etc.

I think I'm very close. Mine are only Al/Br
I don't include any silver coins in this collection, nor do I include errors or varieties.
 But I do include one from each of the press's in Canberra, one of each of all the privy, mintmark & counterstamps along with their heavy press cousins, plus Pudding, Blinky & Dot sets .
My thinking RE these three sets they were the same just different dates, so, just one would do,, WRONG!! gotta have em all.
May as well just have one of the MOR's if that was the case.

I thought that if I was to include Silver coins I would then have to include Gold coins, because,,,
I asked myself this question.
To have a complete set of 25mm Dollar coins, would one not have to include all the GOLD dollar coins as well??
GOD WHER DOES IT END???

[Fulvio]

nor do I include errors or varieties.

Varieties SHOULD be included. They're actually different coins, unlike errors.

[robbiegal]

Yes. Didn't appreciate the smart a**** comment from above telling me to get of the grass not fun at all when being attacked

well mate you had a go at me
and I thought it was unnecessary

and I reacted
and I don't apologise

takes two to tango

GOD WHER DOES IT END???

The dollars are a very long story!!!! I set limits on my dollars years ago.

Yes, and you just started spending mine instead :yahoo:

Why not add the Pnc oversize coins as well?

All valid questions, However a coin set is a personal thing and every collector will decide for themselves as to what is appropriate and valid for their own collections.
When I finally get the last 3 coins I need I will wash off the Cam Cream and unlace the body armour because the main Battle will be over  :ok:
That doesn't mean that if I come across a coin that is a little bit different and I don't have it I will ignore it, NO way I will be grabbing that puppy

All I am saying that you have to draw a line in the sand at some stage because otherwise the task becomes far too expensive and daunting to complete.
Once you have the set that you decided on complete, There is nothing wrong with relaxing a little and making the set a little more complete from time to time :wavemulticolor:

As for adding the Gold coins to the mix, Well I and many other collectors simply don't have that type of money to spend.

the only Gold coins I want to buy are the Australian Mint Sovereigns and Half Sovereigns along with the Gold Proclamation coins.
Now these to me ARE worthy of the dollar sacrifice because of the history associated with these coins.
Lets face it the $1 coins in your pocket change are "Goldies" anyway

To clarify me earlier response re 25 mm coins.

To the best of my knowledge I have a near complete set of 25 mm Alum-Br $1 coins both in folders and removed from folders for my UNC collection held in DANSCO Supreme Albums.

I also have a complete set of 25 mm Silver proof Commemorative coins.

In regards to varieties and errors of the Alum-Br coins, I keep what I noodle and that's it.

Gold coins are a no no, to darn expensive.

I will go to the end of the world to secure non normal packaged $1 Alum-Br coins.   For example, it took me almost eight years to secure the HMAS Sydney 11 Overprinted folder that I now hold two, and a couple of years to secure the Eureka "E" Overprinted Folder.   I am still on the chase for the AFL Premiership coin that PPH has an example of that the AFL will not respond to me emails re this specially wrapped coin.

robbiegal get over it move on ok that'd be choice
Goldy I know you have the HMAS and Eureka folders that is awesome
Whats the AFL Special wrapped coin?
Wasn't there some special folder for the Suffrage coin?
