Received some nice coins.
December 08, 2007, 11:08:12 PM
At work on Friday, one of the Ladies I work with brought in some coins, She had been collecting them for some time, trying to make up sets for her Grandkids. Anyway, she made up the sets and had a few left over, so she wanted to know if I would like them. Silly Question!

I picked up 4 x 1986 Year of Peace $1 coins UNC, with some slight toning.


Also
4 X 2001 ACT 20 cent
5 x 2001 NSW 20 cent
2 x 2001 QLD 20 cent
4 x 2005 Coming Home 20 cent
1 x 2003 Volunteers 20 cent
4 x 1970 Captain Cook 50 cent
5 x 1977 Silver Jubilee 50 cent
2 x 1988 Bicentennial 50 cent
12 x 1981 Charles & Di 50 cent
2 x 1982 Commonwealth Games 50 cent
2 x 1991 Rams head 50 cent
1 x 1995 Weary Dunlop 50 cent
1 x 2001 NSW 50 cent
4 x 2002 Windmill 50 cent
8 x 2003 Volunteers 50 cent
4 x 2004 Aussie animals 50 cent
1 x 2005 remembrance 50 cent

All in XF to UNC condition except the Captain Cook 50 cents, they are VF to XF. All at face value. ;D

  Excellent~!  That's quite a haul on coins, and some of those have to be harder to find in circulation now (especially in such good shape.) 

Do add this coin to my collection?
 
   Cat?      Australian?              US?                Really Old?

Nice one Mate.  I got the summons to the Boss's Office one day.  He asked, "You collect coins I hear"  "Yes Boss" I replied.  "Well" he said, "I'm bringing in my saved coins to bank, go through them, and replace what you find".  This far, I have found a few good $1, including a 2001 upset at 6 O'clock
and the hand cud on the Dancing man.
