Hello Snooba, great to see you back here. What grade is the 1922 half penny?

Nice looking Shilling Trout. The lustre break between the fields and the legends on the obverse suggests it's EF/AU.

That was my take on this , Just hope it isn't "creative" photography. Either way even if it only makes aEF I will be happy with it. If it looks aUNC in hand I will be really happy

Just last night I completed my collection of 20 cent commemorative Australian coins that are readily available in circulation. The Norfolk Island coin (red circled) was the most difficult to get, but I found two in my stash of 20 cent coins !. Picture attached. In future I will have to look for some of these coins in better condition. Nice  Squire

Congratulations Squire Wilson!  The Federation 20c coins are getting really difficult to find in circulation. I don't think I've found any WA or NT in circulation for about a year!

Thanks Snooba Actually, I had a "head start" on some of the Federation 20 cent coins. My mum forwarded me some of these in near-uncirculated condition whenever they appeared in her change around 2001/2 or so  . However, I have been recovering a steady supply of these in my change here in Melbourne. Perhaps I will offer them as a prize, should I ever win the "Noodle Frenzy" competitions at https://goccf.com/t/117074Squire

Wouldn't say no to a crown in that condition! Hope the price was as good as the condition ;)
