I have 7 myself and I was just wondering. Has an estimate been put on how many of these may be in circulation? Ben Report this Post to the Staff

Bluesfil New Member Australia 14 Posts	Posted 05/26/2007 9:04 pm I'll put a photo in tonight - I am off to the footy. I have an Unc one and I will grab a photo of an ordinary one at the same time. The difference is quite noticeable when the two are displayed Report this Post to the Staff

GO Moderator United States 6563 Posts	Posted 05/26/2007 10:04 pm So the Aussies know what they are but don't have any and the Yanks don't have a clue. That's not fair! I'm gonna make up something that no one south of the Equator has ever heard of. Ever heard of the estranho 27 cent piece minted in the highest regions of Death Valley....I didn't think so.

Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 05/26/2007 10:56 pm To our US friends, please be patient. Bluesfil wil post some cracking photos of the Incuse flag on the Aussie 2000 50¢ when he gets back from the footy. Have to get our priorities right here, you know Aussies are footy fanatics. Until I actually held one of these, I couldn't see what all the fuss was about, but now I know. Bluesfil's photos are excellent and well worth waiting for, more so because he has an unc. Read a book, do a crossword & all will soon be revealed. Patience grasshopper. Report this Post to the Staff

Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 05/27/2007 02:51 am Sorry folks, 'footy' is Aussie slang for football. It shouldn't be too long now & there'll be some lovely photos of Bluesfil's Incuse flag. Report this Post to the Staff
