Found this 1984 $1 in almost uncirculated condition, was super surprised as I only ever see ones that are well worn and/ or damaged all over  |

...some of my recent finds whilst noodling and shopping. The "noodling" find of interest is the Australia 2019 "V for Vegemite*" coin that appeared in the coin roll. As soon as I found this I became all patriotic and inspired to a little "creative artistic licence" with the roll of $1 coins that I was noodling through last night. As I live in Melbourne so I added an extra coin on the location of that city. Sorry  , there was not enough space on my black tablet for our beautiful Tasmania  Another recent noodling find included the 2018 Gold Coast XXI Commonwealth Games $1 coin. And from the checkout at Aldi I received a handsome New Zealand 2 dollar coin in my change recently. Squire *Vegemite is a sandwich spread most peculiar to Australia. I believe it is somewhat similar (but much better tasting  ) than the English Marmite!  |

Squire, Just out of curiosity, what year is the New Zealand 2 dollar coin?

Hi Nevol
The New Zealand $2 coin is dated 1990. I believe it is the first year of issue of this denomination NZ coin

Cheers all and some nice finds. I am so happy to see this thread up and running again. I want to share a very important lesson I learned. On Thursday afternoon, I spoke to bank teller, who lamented the fact that they don't have time to look at coins that pass through the bank. She talked about a $1 coin from the year 2000 that "had something wrong with one of the faces" "Oh", I said "I am never ever going to find one of those". The lesson learned - Never ever say never ever. Fast forward to the very next morning (and from a different bank), I tell you no lies..........   |

Strangely, gehenna, they are plentiful in great condition. I still put them aside, though. |

A couple of other finds this week....   It is always makes me wonder, and I guess we will never know - which is the rotated die, the obverse or the reverse? Anyhow...   |

Nice finds!
And I have no idea which die is actually the rotated one - never thought about it.

One for my International collection....... It would be very interesting to know how that 2002 German 50 Euro Cent got to your noodling coin lot.  |
