Good job ttkoo, reel in another Aussie coin collector.

igwt79, were you surprised how small the $2 is? Most people oversea seem to be.

It means we can carry quite a few dollars in our pocket and it's not too big and heavy.

@igwt79 - really happy that you like the coins I sent, enjoy and grow them into a collection!

Thanks to all who took part, hope to see you all back here for my 2000th! I hope you all enjoyed it, I know that I did!

If there is a mod reading this, the competition could get stowed in the finished comps section.....next time I'll put the end date in the topic!
