Nice finds, SallyG!   One coin is showing a major Lamination issue.

Another addition to my O+S collection. This one is a well-worn 1994 $1 mob of roos coin with something of interest on each side. The obverse has a minor planchet flaw and the reverse has a "rabbit ear" die chip.

Thank you Errers and Varietys and jbuck for your replies. I just found this 2006 $2 coin that looks to be an off-centre strike. I have always wanted one but was expecting an off-centre strike to be something from years ago. Certainly wasn't expecting something so modern. Anyway so stoked to have found one.

That's a pretty cool find, Sally!
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Found this $1 2001 upset coin in a bag of $1 coins today. 90 degrees out of whack is pretty cool I think. A welcome addition to my "O+S" collection.

Thanks jbuck and Errers and Varietys. Here is another oddity for my collection. It is a 1995 $2 coin with what appears to be extra metal pressed down on the obverse. There is a thin strip of metal running from the rim to the forehead going through the "A" of Australia. I have no idea how it would have got there. Anyway, something different so into the O+S collection it goes.
