<p>[QUOTE=&quot;giorgio11, post: 1171448, member: 17094&quot;]I have the Marsh book and refer to it often, although he was unaware that the 1927-M (Melbourne) is apparently unknown in any collection. John the Jute, who has patrolled these waters (and I hesitate to paraphrase someone so studied in the series, much more than I--John, are you Out There?), has pointed out his belief that postwar Aussie issues may be underrated due to some &quot;mass extinction events&quot; while Canadians may be more available than generally thought, although still scarce overall. (And I have seen the suggestion that perhaps Australia, like the U.S. Saint-Gaudens double eagles from the late 1920-30s, reported the <i>number minted</i> rather than the <i>number released,</i> which can vary widely.) </p><p><br /></p><p>andyscouse, looking forward to your further information (and that of others). Another Aussie sovereign (and half sovereign) reference is the fabulous Quartermaster auction catalog (Monetarium Pty Ltd, April 2009 ), which I have a print copy of although I have not studied it in-depth compared to Marsh). Perhaps an online version of that catalog is available as well?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
