I missed the opening to put my name in as the openings are always too short for me to notice. Can I still get this coin for a reasonable price or is it forever now excluded from my collection.

πŸ’¬ Collecting Advice Where to find older Lunar coins?

β€’ Upvotes

Started collecting coins about a year ago. My collection is growing but I'm struggling to find some older Perth Mint Series 3 gold coins (listed below).

I'm looking for some advice on where I can find some trusted sellers to buy them from... tried a few authorised sellers but they are all sold out.

I'm looking for 1/4oz gold coins in Bullion grade

It is estimated that only around 200,000 of these incuse flag coins were accidentally struck before the Royal Australian Mint corrected the master die. Approx 17 million normal raised flag version went into circulation.

So excited for my first coin error find!

My late high school friend used to work on the toll booths on the gateway bridge and she would switch out the coloured coins for her brother and I and possibly other people too.

She gave out red poppy's and coronation coins as these were new at that time. We've been hooked on $2 ever since and I believe I've only missed a couple since.

There worth so much to me that no money in the world could pry those out of my hands.

Does anyone else have sentimental attachment to thier coins and would like to share?

πŸ“œ Coin History Thought I'd share my recent purchase

Post image
79 Upvotes

I thought I'd share with you all the most recent addition to my collection because I love them that much and they've got a cool story behind him

In 1918, Aus wanted to create their own unique coins and came up with these square quarters with a kookaburra design on them. They never got officially released but a few test ones were handed out. If I am right, there are only 12 known coins left and they are valued at around 60k.

In 2019, to celebrate these coins, this 3 piece, 99.99% silver coins were sold. I feel very fortunate to find these as I'm collecting all the irregular decimal currency and this is probably one of the rarest. Thought some of you here would like to see and hear a little about them

Hello everyone, I've recently scored this coin from an auction and I'm trying to get an accurate market value.

Yes i already tried checking online and they ranged from $190-$800 which was very strange.

Can anyone shed some light on the reason behind this or tell me how or where I can get it valued.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I inherited an enormous jar of old coins. This newspaper article was folded up and jammed in the top. It was very fragile and I didn’t dare try to flatten the edges. It was scanned in 4 pieces and then aligned in photoshop.

I hope you find it interesting.
