got my third one in change at a pharmacy this morning.
it is ding-free, but discoloured: not greasy, nor dirty, but there are patches of shiny, bold colou (60%)r, alternating with paler, matte areas (about 40%).
That's my third in 10 days, but none of them worth putting into a 2x2.

regarding the 5-cents on ebay: he's got one bid of $40 + postage for $4 worth of current coins ... excuse me while I steady myself ... and I note that he attempts to fuel interest with speculation that the 5-cent will be "fazed" out. Peter in Darwin |

A few hours later I got my first 2011 20-cent W&K in beautiful condition.
Yay !

Queensland. Oh dear! Sorry, but can you be just a little bit more specific? eg, SE Qld, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Central Coast, FN Qld, or out the back of woop-woop.  I want to know where those 2010 5c are convening.  life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved

The Royal Australian Mint generally seems to release commemorative coins struck in fewer numbers, before the release of the definitive issues, struck in larger numbers.
I think that is why it is possible to find the commemorative coins in circulation first.
They have never issued commemorative $2, 10c. or 5c. coins, probably because of the smaller size of these coins, where it is harder to perceive the design intent.
