I pulled out my 2010 Australian coins and banknotes book by Greg McDonald pg136 says that the RAM provided info that approx 200,000 coins were minted from the incused die. That's 1-2%

The figure I have in my head that a die can produce is about 200,000 coins? that would mean only one die was incuse? please correct me if wrong.

Yes as far I know 1 die was used and it only produced approx 200,000 incused coins, when it had the potential to produce 340,000!

Maybe purple penny or markn know something about this sort of thing

Judging by that stat of 340,000 coins per die...could use that for the 2004 Pointy 20c piece?

Thanks Steve.
The "Pointy A" 20c seems reasonably rare then.
Although (like the 1972 5c) it will only be collected by people who are quite into coin collecting. Most people would never spot it.

If or when they change our currency and they become as to future collectors as predecimals are to us I think key dates will command greater increases in value when compared to die vairieties. Maybe the wavy 66 and incuse are major enough to break from this rule but I think things like the pointy A may be of little interest.

this is all bull about stats 'cause I've been looking for an inny for a bloody long time and still haven't found one but have found a few other things that people say are rare so I think it's like everything else in life and it's all just luck of the draw and being in the right spot at the right time and to know what your looking at Or in my case most of the time..wrong place wrong time

What are the stats on someone doing their back that then triggers a brain tumor that then leads to chronic thrombosis in the right arm and then this and that so how lucky am I to have all these things that don't happen often all hit me around the same time..and be told by so many so call professionals that I'm not text book and don't know what to do with me so just live with it..I'm happy to help rewrite the book but that don't want to know

sorry people for gettin on me box, just sick of hearing about stats all the time in the news when most are not true as you can stack them with where you ask, who you ask, and what you ask so it all says what you want it to say

Since the start of 2010;

I have found 11 incused flags for $38100 worth of 50c searched (my latest yesterday ). So that's pretty close to the 1 every $3460 searched.

I have found 2 wavy 2's for $15750 worth of 20c searched. So that's pretty close to the 1 every $7875 searched. Of that I haven't found any in the last $14000 searched! I hope I'm due for another one soon .

Ausjack stats are a necessary evil of life. As with all things they need to be taken in context. The saying "Lies, damned lies and statistics" Mark Twain (I think) says it all. You can always find a stats to help with a weak argument! (hence they turn up is speculative news a lot) But if the survey size and area is large, they can be interesting if not useful.

For example, 100% of people cured of cancer by drug (group size 2 people in 1 house) or 95% of people cured of cancer by drug (group size 20000 people worldwide). Further stats show that the 5% not cured were all had red hair.

The second stat is useful. The stat proves cancer can be cured and is also related to hair colour. Scientists can focus on the hair colour gene to cure cancer for redheads.

Like you have indicated, the media would probably jump of the stat that says 100% were cured.

However the $200 bag that my wife got for me had a heap of uncirculated coins in it.
Centenary of federation state coins, 1982 games, 2005 rememberance, 1970, 1977, 2004. Someone had definately collected these ones!
