Sets Completed!!
December 10, 2007, 08:38:21 PM
I just now placed the last coin in the Two Cent Dansco Album, and can now state I have pretty well completed my Australian decimal coin sets.

Sets completed:

One Cent
Two Cent
Five Cent
10 Cent
20 Cent
50 Cent

As happy as I am with these completed sets, I do regret that none of the coins were found by myself.

Fine folks from Australia, such as humpybong, Muckeye, Triggersmob, Nevol, and especially Gregk, made this possible, and I appreciate them very much.

A majority of my United States sets are filled with coins I found, and I also found many of the coins which reside in my Canadian albums.

Regardless, I love my Aussie coins, and will share them with family and friends.

Now, to get to work on those pre-decimal pennies!!

 :) :) :) :)

Gary, it's great to see you have completed all these sets.
I think you must have more decimal coins than me, and I'm here in Aus.
I only have the 1 cents completed.

Heehee. Steve, that's because you keep sending all your coins over here to us!  ;)  We're grateful for it though.

And, I'm still looking for another 72 five cent piece for you. Promise.

Congrats CC on the finished sets. Now to make it interesting you could collect the varieties that exists.  ;D I have started on these and it is not an easy task I can say, especially to try and get most of them in UNC. I have yet to finish a variety set. Cheers.
