Am looking at Downies as one of the safe places to buy recent minted Australia coins. Am new to buying recent coins.

Noticed Downies has a lot of coins for sale that go back into the teens years of coin releases. There looks like a vast collection of coins that did not sell for over 10 years some of them since minting. Many coins around 5 years old. Many, many coins in very recent coins are marked at Downies as sold out of stock.

The Australia mints are a safe place also to buy from and know that their coins are good. ebay is frightening on how to decern if a coin is a fake or not.

Do not know of anywhere else to buy real minted coins other than the mint & Downies.

Is there anywhere else that the coin sellers can be trusted?
