Fifty Cent Pieces Information Needed
March 15, 2009, 06:08:55 PM
I was going through my Australian Fifty Cent coins this evening, making sure my Dansco Album is complete as possible.

I would guess I'm missing some coins, but not sure which ones.

I have loaned out my Austraian coin books, so can't help myself.

Here's what I have in the album:

1966 though 2002 Outback (Complete)
2003 Volunteers
2004 Koala Reverse
2004 Normal Reverse
2005 World War II
2005 Melbourne Games
2006 Normal Reverse
2007 Normal Reverse
2008 Normal Reverse

Can anyone tell me what I'm missing.  And, would anybody want to trade for what I'm missing, or sell the coins I need?

Any help is appreciated.

 :) :) :) :)

If your collection is circulation coins, then at present I'd say it's complete.  Well done!

There are 'other' 50¢ coins, but they're Non Circulation Legal Tender (NCLT).

Do you have the 1979 and 1980 Double Bar?  (Not uncommon)
There might also be a 1966 Double Bar.
What about the wide date 1994? (Again not that uncommon)
Then there is the 1970 Captain Cook Date variation. (Haven't particularly looked for this one, so I can't say how common. I simply keep all my Captain Cooks.

There is the Student Primary (Koala) 2004
Student Secondary 2005

NCLT
2006 Queens Birthday
2006 Commonwealth Games x 16
2007 60th Wedding Anniversary
2008 Scout Centenary

Ah!  good ole Yass.  Remembering everything I've forgotten.  ;D ;D

1979 and 1980 Double Bar - common, get plenty spares, all well circulated though
1970 Captain Cook leaning 7 Date variation. Pretty common, got quite a few, all well circulated though.
wide date 1994 - Relatively common, got spares all well circulated though

If you need any of these, just ask.  8)

I'm sure I have sent Gary double bars from 1979 and 1980.
