Quote:I'm wondering what all the hype is about Cuds on coins are they collectable valueable or just a hobby I enjoy keeping a lookout for Cuds when noodling and always keep or upgrade them when found but I don't view them as being valuable, particularly with most finds are well circulated ... it's always exciting though to find a 'new' Cud! A quick look on ebay will give you a good indication of what they are selling for. |

I would agree that in Australia the vast majority aren't valuable and are more curiosities, but the $1 rabbit ears seem quite popular.

Rim Cuds are nice error coins to add to a collection. As Mr T said, the $1 rabbit ears are quite well collected. I have quite a lot of Aussie coins with ' Cuds' but be aware that what we in Oz call Cuds, the US call Die chips. The bigger the Cud, the more valuable the coin might be. life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved

Rim Cuds are most often on $2 & $1 coins, so if you find them on other denominations, you're pretty lucky.  life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved

hi all I thought I might try coin rolling so I went to my bank and asked for 150.00 in change wow did my thoughts about coin rolling just plummet the teller glared at me them gave the teller next to her a disapproving look and said something I didn't catch then bombed me with a hundred questions some which I thought had nothing to do with swapping money she made me feel as though I was doing something wrong, I got the change and left the bank feeling like crap for the rest of the day When I wanted to cash the money in I went to another bank not a member off and the teller was just wonderful does anyone else have this problem.

Even when using one of their cash exchange forms and they would insist on wanting my business account number so they could write it on the back!  A few months ago, at my branch, they got rid of the tellers and put in machines ... now I just go to the coin machine and get what I want, when I want! Edited by coaster

I use the change dispensing machines exclusively these days but back when I used to talk to tellers they were always fine about. Some of the new what I was doing and were supportive if anything. |

I haven't really had too much trouble either. I think you need to bank with them though. The places I go to know that I am a collector, and are generally supportive. I have been told that they do prefer it if you order them a few days in advance (ahead of them placing their orders) then you can stipulate if you want them loose, in the small bags, or in rolls. Rolls are my last choice as I hate the damage they create on the outer coins. The tellers sometimes ask if I have found anything... I have even brought in a coin or two to show them. Generally they seem interested.
Apologies if this ramble is somewhat off topic.
