Got this a couple of weeks back. Downies ended up finding another one after the one Auspost lost. (I can't remember if I posted a picture already)

Thanks AJ and Mark. Being quite a large coin its amazing the detail they get.

The royal mint is actually making the same design, 20 pounds, for 20 pounds.

What a shame they're cutting the colonials out of the offer. Guess I better chat to some poms I know, eh? ;)

Wouldn't it be nice if OUR mob released goodies at face value? And no, the coronation fiasco doesn't count.

Hmm.. well, I placed an order as well. We'll see if they cancel it before they ship in November. Might go ahead with plan A as well anyway, especially since poms get free shipping.
