The 1985 50c is proving to be my nemesis! I've already found a 2010 rotated 50c and an incuse millennium 50c (pictures to follow soon!), but I haven't seen an '85. I've found six 1993 50c coins though...

Nice work with the rotated and incuse BB! The 1985s can be a hard coin to find.

Thanks Karloning and Nancy, I didn't have a dance of joy after finding my holy grail coin, so I didn't put one of those jumping things in. I needed one that expresses: "did this really happen?". I'm sure it'll sink in later tonight....next is the mythical 1985 rabbit ears

50c noodling has turned up some more gems for me over the last few weeks. I've had a lot of CoF again lately (I have over a dozen each of the WA and Norfolk Island designs now), plus a large number of Royal Visits.   A nice Ram's Head and Bicentennial:  I even managed to conquer my nemesis yesterday and found an '85. That makes it an extremely hard coin to find for me - I've been through over $3,300 of 50c coins to find just this one. I've shown it here with a '93 - I've found six of these by comparison...  And finally, as promised, the pic below of the incused millennium, which I think is in decent condition.

Nice work, those 85's are getting harder and harder to come by.
