Are So-Called Granny Bait Coins a Sign that Australia is Going Down the Toilet?

[Qld Sandy]

I used to collect all the one ounce silver roo coins even with the selective gold plating as they were nice to look at until the the Rolf Harris child like offering and no longer do. I was collecting the silver proof sets up until they started messing around with the box shape. I had a full set of proof and unc decimal coins from proof sets etc in Dansco Supreme albums until they started milking the collector even harder and sold them in about 2010. I now stick to the pre-decimals and their error/varieties as they are a finite group and there is much to learn about them. Personally I find the modern coins amateurish as compared to what we had for the last hundred or so years, but that is just me.
