Sydney Easter Show - 2013 Bicentenial Holy Dollar and Dump

[purplepennyhunter]

They are $10 at the ANDA shows. Why would the Sydney Royal Easter Show be any different to warrant such a price cut, or should I say are we getting ripped off at ANDA shows?

I think most of these will be available in a 4 coin set later in the year if the mint runs true  to form:dodgy:

Glad to hear Wavey20.   They have come down in price.   Maybe the RAM has finally woken up to the fact that the lower the cost, the more one sells....lets hope it will flow to the ANDA Shows.

ANDA shows 4 of them, 5,000 coins @ $10.00 equals $50,000  over 2 days, times 4 shows a year that's  $200,000

RAS show,  20,000 coins @  $5.00 equals $100,000 over 13 days

That's of course if they sell them all.

But in answer to you question, "are we getting ripped off at ANDA shows?"
nooooooooooooooo wayyyyyyyyyyy

it will be interesting to compare the Royal Easter Counterstamp to that of the Sydney ANDA show.   Maybe there will be a difference and the ANDA Show coins will be scarcer.

However, if there is absolutely no difference, then where do we stand.

Maybe the folder will give the ID of which show the coin came from.......

If you look at previous page I have a scan of current folder there is no indication as it is from the RAS just Sydney

Maybe there will be a different coin offering for the Sydney ANDA. Just speculating.-John

Let's not confuse ourselves with counterstamp vs privymark.

If the price is $10 at ANDA I'm sure one of the outspoken members here will have a few words to the RAM:dodgy:

seeings as me and AC are now flash new Mint Legend Members :dance: Maybe they will offer these show coins to us at a discount:angel: :laugh2:

Could it be possible that the clue to the difference may be in the "mintage" figure.   20,00 for the Royal Easter Show and 5,000(?) for the ANDA Show.

I have just checked the "P" ANDA Show folders and the mintage on them is indicated at 5,000..........

If this is the case then the folder will be the clue via the MINTAGE figure.

If you borrowed the $3 then you Have to pay it back ( unless you are willing to welch on the loan) so it still only cost you 3 bucks, Great deal Mate:good:

i did say he is a mate (of 40 yrs) and  a keeper as he got me into this coin collecting, also red wine !! on the day we were impressed with the display at RAM and unaware of the press so be warned take plenty of coins!
do not worry he gets his $3 out me other ways:laugh2:

Most people buying the "S" at the show are buying for their kids. I watched a few couples with prams walk past and buy a coin each for the kids and in seconds the kids are ripping the folder apart. Will be very tough selling the 20000 coins all at the show or even close to it. Ram staff were making up dealers orders. They might not have the press at the SYD ANDA show. I'm told this is the only portable press "S".

We will have to wait till Sep 2013 to see if the RAM will attend the Sydney ANDA Show.

Accroding to the ANDA Website, the dates have changed and I think the Location as well.
