Needed: Aussie coins/paper
November 10, 2007, 10:51:54 AM
I only have two Australian coins, and I want more. Nothing special, just some interesting peices from Australia. I particularly like the ones with animals, like kangaroos, on them. I'd like some paper money from Australia as well.
I only have a few things I'm willing to part with in trade at the moment. Here is what I have: Several common U.S. silver certificates, a couple 40% Kennedies, a roll of unc 1964 Canadian dimes (silver), and some other common world coins from places like Mexico, France, Germany, etc.
Thanks!

That's why we're the Knights of the Coin Table, and it's a lovely trait in all of our Australian members.  Extremely generous folk.

  I can't wait to hear which coins these lovely Australians have sent to you

Do add this coin to my collection?

To repeat what ElleKitty said, the Aussies are extremely generous.

I currently have probably 300 Australian coins lying on my desktop.  Ninety percent of them were shipped to me from KOTCT members in Australia.  Some were sold to me at cost, some traded, and others just offered as gifts.

That's not to say that all of our members aren't good, generous people, because they are.  However, the Aussies seem to go far out of their way to be generous and helpful.

G'day AdamL, 

Count me in as well.  Some of our coins are plentiful, some are hard to get, due to low mintage.   

Regards

Old Dan, are you ever correct.

A couple summers ago a friend and I took a ride over Engineer Pass to Lake City.

We found a little restaurant with outdoor seating.  One person was sitting there having lunch.

My friend says to me, "You know the Texans own most of the state."  Then he says, "Watch this."  He walked up to the gentleman consuming his num nums, and asked him, "Say, where ya from?"  The diner answered "San Antonio."

We like to cuss out the Texans, but welcome their money at hunting season.

 ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yup!  Summer in Colorado, Winter in Texas. Best of both worlds, and the temperature never changes. :D

(Disclaimer:  I do not own any land in Colorado.)

Do add this coin to my collection?

I do own land in Colorado.

I often times walk out in our backyard, hook my thumbs in my belt loops and survey my domain.  All half acre of it!!

Well it's ample for the house to sit on!!
