goatieman23 Pillar of the Community Australia 869 Posts	Posted 01/06/2013 04:05 am Finally filtered through 4.5kg of 1 & 2 cent pieces. Took a while. They were from three sources & had been sitting around for a long time. I'm finally getting onto releasing some of my items for my 2013 resolution...sell, sell, sell followed by buy. If I can do that all year, I'll have one third less! Anyways; I found 4 x 1968 2c & also found 7 x 1968 1c A decent score for a few hours. Anyone interested in 4.5kg's of 1&2c coppers?

flippy Pillar of the Community Australia 1874 Posts	Posted 01/09/2013 12:26 am I went to the bank today and asked if they has any round 50c coins and they reached into the draw and pulled out 10! They said I could have them for $5(50c each) Some are not in great condition but for 50c I am happy. Report this Post to the Staff
Jeff Pillar of the Community Australia 877 Posts	Posted 01/09/2013 12:37 am Try some acetone on those rounds. You might be surprised how well some will come up. Anyway, you have about $10 worth of silver in each coin! Jeff Report this Post to the Staff

The Unicorn Pillar of the Community Australia 750 Posts	Posted 01/09/2013 12:56 am Fair dinkum flippy, that's unreal. I would have assumed (obviously incorrectly) that the people in the banks would be keeping them for themselves or their friends. Ask and you shall receive eh! Report this Post to the Staff
Matt_J Valued Member Australia 88 Posts	Posted 01/11/2013 11:36 pm Hi Everyone, I finally get to contribute to this thread, I am thinking beginners luck as I have only started noodling and lucky to come across a Wavy 2. Happy to say this has motivated me to keep up the search Any help in grading would be appreciated as I'm not up to the specifics yet. Report this Post to the Staff
Squire Wilson Pillar of the Community Australia 653 Posts	Posted 01/11/2013 11:51 pm Matt What a coincidence - my first find upon commencing "noodling" was also a 1966 wavy Since that time I have found a number of other variety coins. But no second wavy .... Squire Edited by Squire Wilson 01/11/2013 11:52 pm Report this Post to the Staff

enworb Pillar of the Community Australia 4411 Posts	Posted 01/12/2013 12:32 am Looks pretty good Matt. Just to be sure could you post a close up pic of the 2? Report this Post to the Staff
Jeff Pillar of the Community Australia 877 Posts	Posted 01/12/2013 12:40 am Welcome to the forum Matt and that find is a good welcome to noodling. Looks like the real deal and not bad condition for a 1966 coin. Jeff Report this Post to the Staff
Matt_J Valued Member Australia 88 Posts	Posted 01/12/2013 02:11 am I'm using an iPhone camera and id doesn't really do justice on the zoom. I've zoomed in the best I can on the 2, from a top down view, the Wavy line is more prominent when viewing from a slight angle Report this Post to the Staff

Squire Wilson Pillar of the Community Australia 653 Posts	Posted 01/14/2013 4:52 pm Noodling through $1 coins last night. FINALLY found a 1997 Smithy in near uncirculated condition. These coins are so rare to find in good condition, so I was stoked Upstart of it all was that this coin was at the end of the Armaguard roll - remarkable . To top it all off, I also found a coin with nice "lamination / planchet flaw" Pic attached Squire Report this Post to the Staff
