Hi there been lurking for a while and following your progress. This is such a great hobby that I am hoping to start.
I had a quick question for some of you expert noodlers. Is there a place where you can see the image and mintages of each coin so you know what to look for.
I found information on the royal Australian mint website but noticed it was missing, possum magic, wiggles, Mr squiggle and some Olympic coins, all of which are in circulation.

 The latest Renniks "Australian Coin & Banknotes Value" Book is just out,Pics.,Mintages & Values.A$40 well spent. I usually use Macca's guide but it looks like he is not going to update it anymore.

Seems he never envisioned the sheer number of commemorative coins that have come out over the last 5 years or so. The guide would be three times bigger than it used to be.

Day 77Noodled 13 rolls of two dollar coins but didn't find anything new.  You need a big bank-roll to be able to noodle $2 coins in mass quantities. Total number of two dollar coins noodled: 6575 Number of different coins found: 73 Number of coins still to find: 9

Day 81All I found today was one of those slightly off-centre coins that some people claim are mules. This one is interesting in that it is off-centre on both sides:  Total number of two dollar coins noodled: 6825 Number of different coins found: 73 Number of coins still to find: 9
