Lim,
found it! Page 373
. beautiful!!!!!! and I WANT one! Does Australia even MAKE an ugly coin? I am amazed. Who would have thunk a SQUARE silver coin?
The only real problem I see (aside from not being filthy rich) is the small mintages of a lot of the coins which in turn probably makes them very expensive and very hard to find.
Oh and I found an interesting bit of info too. "prices at the time of printing, Nov 2005, for gold was $464.44 US and silver $7.78 US. Yep, thats me, a day late and a dollar short.
I am going to enjoy this book and hopefully at some point decide what I would really like to collect without breaking the bank and then start adding to it as I go.
Thanks for the pix!
Margaret
