    Been hooked on these kangaroo's at sunset lately, I think they are beautiful coins.

    No, not too many at all. 4k of the 09 and 10k of the 14 business strike version. I ran across that 09 at a local shop and paid $90 for it. Felt like that was a steal. It came with original box and paperwork on top of pcgs slab.

    Saw this and it was cheap. I saw them when I was in Oz but they were more expensive and ungraded. Only reverse pic sorry.

    If we're showing our non-circulating modern Australian dollar coins, I just happened to get this in the mail today. It came in this nifty display with the stamp too. I also ordered one with a koala on it from the same person but that didn't arrive, so hopefully it's on the way. dingo.jpg Scan.jpg

    That one looks great! I have one with the baby kangaroo and another one for the London Olympics. You'll have to show the Koala one when it gets to you.

    I also got these today. I went on a little spree buying silver Canadian dollars. These are all proofs so even though they look lousy in the pictures they're actually very nice. And I loved the lion on the Turkish coin. 1916 west africa 2 shillings.jpg 1985 canada 1 dollar.jpg 1986 canada 1 dollar.jpg 1987 canada 1 dollar.jpg 2011 turkey 1 lirasi lion.jpg

    A bona fide seller would not dump 15,000 futures contracts on the Asian market at 2:30 am. This sort of thing has been happening on almost a daily basis for years. I can give countless specific examples. A legit seller would try to work off his position over a period of time in a effort to try and disguise his selling and disturb prices as little as possible.

    Not the highest of grades but still "Single Pop" in PCGS Registry.

    Officially - Unknown number of minted coins in Proof.

    I can count the number of bullion coins I have on one hand. But I saw the new kookaburra and really liked it, I feel the designs are hit-miss. Kookaburra's are one of my favourite animals and I feel quite often the coins don't do them justice. But this years design I felt was good.

    And just so you know why I love them.

    Another 1 onza for me. This one had low mintage comparatively, and has a population in MS 68 of 5. There is one finer. The coin has some light, rosy toning, which is consistent of having been in an album.

    Briefly stopped at the Grapevine Coin show this afternoon on my way to the Doctor. Spent less than an hour, but I never leave empty handed. I think I like the new design with the Maple leaf privy. Canada 2015 Mapleleaf.jpg privy.

    Hey @rooman9 you might appreciate this 1855 Australian 1 penny token I picked up. It's "well loved" but you don't see these tokens too often. 1855 australia penny token.jpg

    Just got this 2 onza. Low mintage to begin with, and a PCGS pop of 1, with only 1 finer. The thing I DO NOT get is the MS 64 grade---looks way under graded to me. DSC00340.jpg DSC00342.jpg

    I agree, the coin appears to be a 67 or 68 to me.

    I think so. Going to resubmit with minimum grade 67.
