Ive only seen two poppy's so far. One in very nice condition and one so dirty it already looked 20 years old so that was spent. Only 2012 coin I havent found so far is $1 kangaroo. Did they make any? And also no coloured poppy's yet...besides the ones I've seen at Australia post.

trikdoutcobalt I am not surprised you haven't found a coloured poppy in circulation they have only been around for a few months and cost $10 per coin. I wouldn't think anyone would release them into circulation but I am probably wrong. I have found 17 standard Poppy coins in circulation though.

From today's noodle ($500 in $1 coins) I found 28 x 2011 MOR's, and no 2012 dollar coins....

I've seen lots of 2012 coins, all denominations. Eastern Melbourne suburbs. I saved a lot of Poppies, then got a bit over it. There seems to be an abundance of 2012 10 cent pieces in Melbourne. It's also time for me to go through the money boxes at home: I put the $2 in one container, the $1's in another & all the silver in a final container. I need a counting machine.  Also, there was a post about 2011 10c & $1, I found one of each of these in the till today & that was just standard float. Quote: nealeffendi: Slightly OT but last week I received in change on at least 3 occasions nice aUNC dollar coins and a few 5 cent coins from different shops and they were all from the 80s and 90s. Did somebody decide to clear out the back of a bank vault? I've come across some 1970's 50 cents lately...as for why? No idea. Could just be someone that had all these coins put aside & then thought f...it/effort & released them back into the pond? I wish I could answer that. I'll have to take a photo of the 1971 50 cent I got at the shop today in the till, I put it aside, but left it at the shop.
