Hmmm...not the best start to my coin examination last night. Have gone through 200 coins, and managed to bag a 2001 Norfolk Island 20 cent commemorative. Looking at the 50 cent and 1 dollar lots tonight.

My results are in from $250 of 50c:
First $10 bag of 50c I thought I had the comp won. 2x SA 2001 Fed 1x TAS 2001 Fed 1x 1991 Rams Head 1x1993 1x1985
After that bag it was pretty much down hill. 2x 1973 1x 1991 Rams Head 2x SA 2001 Fed 1x QLD 2001 Fed 1x NT 2001 Fed 1x ACT 2001 Fed
Not too bad. Disapointing all the bags werent like the first. I'm thinking it must have been a collectors coins that had been deposited back to the bank because to find all them in one bag is near impossible.
Dont think I can win with that so good luck to others!

hi sorry a bit off topic but I am new to the forums and was wondering if anyone could explain noodling? is it just exchanging money for coins and picking out rare dates and varieties or am I missing something:( thanks in advance

Late night - insert random comment: @enworb that first bag I'd die for, considering NO states in $100 50c and clearly collector returns with a bag containing numerous 70's aUnc's with pattern toning, but made up for by 94 wide dates & 93, with bubbles and 2008 gaps in 20's...

Quote: Bubbles, you found bubbles? How Many? Sorry to disappoint nancy, but my noodling (and bubbles) happens mid-week, so we're still at just the 2 for the week... But I can feel for enworb's hard week state-wise because I know from experience it's been a hard week ;)

The 1972 10c is actually quite hard to find.
