What does the 'TV' mintmark look like? On which coin does it appear?

Aidan, the TV mintmark is on a 1 dollar coin that celebrates 50 years of television. Here is a link to one on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/1-X-2006-1-T...cmdZViewItem

Triggersmob, I am in exactly the same boat as you. I ordered my coins 15/05 and haven't received any word yet. I sent the RAM an email yesterday and their automated reply was something to the effect of - we get so many emails, we'll get to yours soon. I think i'll be ringing them on monday.

Thanks for your replys. Harrisjk, let me know how you go with the phone call. I sent them an e-mail a week ago and got the automated reply and nothing else yet. I seems from your responses that this is not unusual, so maybe they haven't been stolen from my letterbox as I was starting to wonder.

i received my order in about 8 days from the mint , but I always buy quite a few other items to take advantage of the free postage for orders over 300 dollars , so the theory that they look after bigger orders first may have some truth in it (i have been buying direct from the mint for around 15 years )

Rang the mint this morning. My order placed online on 15/5 wasn't even processed until the 22/5 (a whole week later?) so the girl tried to tell me it hadn't been 4 weeks yet and I should allow 4 weeks for delivery. So, my order has been packaged but is sitting there waiting to be shipped "should be sent this week". Well I should think so......

I checked my bank account details today. The RAM took payment out on the 26th May, 10 days after the order was placed. If I allow 4 weeks for delivery, the coins should arrive at the end of the week. Hopefully. Steve

The mint limited the amount of this coin they gave to dealers. So many people had to order a small amount from the mint direct. I suppose that the mint would of had a flood of small orders.
Why would they do this? Well, it does give the mint a current mailing list of collectors. The subscription coin use to give them a current list of NCLT coins, but numbers are down on that series.
