ozcoins Pillar of the Community Australia 1005 Posts	Posted 01/15/2013 04:37 am I did some analysis of the mintage numbers for each year, and from memory (based purely on mintage numbers till 2008) there should be 3 * 72 in each $100 worth of 5c However this does not take into account -old coins have more time/chance of being removed from circulation -1972s have been removed even more by collectors -2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 have been released making 72s more scarce My guess is that you would be lucky to find 2 in each $100 of 5c (2000 coins) Bottom line: You did well!! PS. I use an led magnifying glass Report this Post to the Staff
