I'm a bad Aussie..
May 27, 2008, 02:46:10 AM
or am I good Darkside Ambassador?

With my latest aquisition of coins from Arthrene, my U.S. collection now exceeds my Aussie collection.

Forgive me fellow Aussies.

YOU are most definitely an A.O.D. and should be very proud of it!  8)  Seeing how my world collection outnumbers my U.S. collection now I think we are in the same boat. Had to sell off a lot of my U.S. collection due to job problems in the last 2 and a half years but thats about to change. It appears my rough times are hopefuly coming to an end and I will get back into the habit of leaving all my spare money at my favorite store----A COIN SHOP!!! ;D

Hey Nevol I am getting ready to send out your statehood quarters in an effort to make you an "Almost bad Aussie?" ;D
I finally got those New Mexico quarters so I can NOW complete our trade. ;D

That's only fair.  My major weakness is Australian coins.  Although, there's a lot of nice large silver coins coming from South America that run a close second.

My American coin collection is pitiful in comparison :(

Do add this coin to my collection?

I'm sorry, I tried to keep the Aussie collection bigger, but it's not easy when the U.S. puts out 2 or 3 coins for each type (one from each mint) and we only have the Canberra mint.  :( :( :(

Steve, Do you have a recently updated wish list?  Maybe we can rectify the situation for you & keep you & your collection where you belong.  ::) ::) :P

Thanks for the offer to help, Guys.
I'm not looking for charity, so I'm willing to pay or trade.
Might take while to pay them off though.

Anyway, this is what I still need for Aus pre-decimals, I'll do the Decimals later.

Half Penny - 1915, 1918, 1923, 1924, 1940, 1944, 1945, 1946, 1960.
Penny - 1925, 1930, 1946.
Sixpenny - 1911, 1912, 1918, 1922, 1923, 1924, 1935, 1953.
Shilling - 1911, 1912, 1914, 1915, 1920, 1921, 1925, 1926, 1927, 1928, 1931, 1933, 1934, 1935, 1938, 1939, 1941.
Florins - 1910 - 1913, 1915 - 1926, 1928, 1931 - 1935, 1938, 1945.
Crown - 1938

Lower grades and any mint are ok.
If I can fill 22 holes, Aussies will be back in front again. LOL

Thanks for your help in advance.

I might have some buried somewhere, the pennies anyway.  I know practically everything save the 1930 is in the lot I have, including several scarcer 1912-1914 dates.

She would probably like for you to give me a swift kick in the butt for being so slow!  ;D I am so far behind I think I have passed myself. But, the good news, I will be OFF work next week and I am getting all these packages that have stacked up to the post office! I PROMISE!

I can sympathise. >< I've -STILL- got the Pet Set sitting on my table, almost ready to be shipped off. ><   I swear I'll get it out by this weekend!
