Here are three tokens I picked up in a large lot back in the summer and just getting around to photographing. Can't find out much about them. Could anyone direct me to a reference on tokens of Australia and New Zealand? Thanks!

Thanks, ttkoo! I was able to download it without problem. I found auction prices for the Mulligan and Gilmour, and was very pleasantly surprised!

About 20 years ago a friend bought me this 1985 RAM Mint Set. It's been hidden away in a box until I ran across it today. Is the copper toning on the reverses normal?
