Quote: so I guess I will try and track down another supplier of Mylar flips. I use to buy from Air-Tite in the U.S.A., but the dollar dropped and postage went up, so they became very expensive. The quality was good and the cardboard was thick, but found them very dusty, probably from the cutting machine. Now I buy them direct from China off ebay. Price is good, and delivery is normally free. Cardboard is a bit thinner and they are dust free. Steve :)

Yes I am and I really want to trade back, please please send me a list I have several coins set aside, some requested by you and some which are thank you pieces (You need a shiny Kiwi sixpence in your life and you are getting one!)  Trigger's 2 dollar coins direct from Australia with the rare dates like 1998, 2000, 2001, 2004, 2007 and 2011 along with creamy Firefighters and a 2021!  A super rare JC 2019 50 cent piece (How in God's name did you get it, Numista said 70k minted!) a 1997 10 cent which is a HUGE upgrade on the one I have and a 2019 10 cent coin  More delights including a 1921 Halfpenny! Thanks man!

In fact I bought bags of all the denominations in both JC & IRB. I made up a lot of sets and sent most of them to Germany for Ralf to swap on the German coin forum. I will send you an up dated want list too. Steve :)

Finally, got the big daddy for my collection of $2  Not 1 but 2 of these babies and they were not that expensive either. Just wondering should I keep both coins as they are very collectible or try and sell one to recoup my expenses. With these and Steve and DG's top ups my collection is complete sans one early 1990s $2 coin!

1993 with a mintage of 4.7 million.
We are all missing 1991 as it was only issued in sets.

Wow thanks! If you need payment I have 20 spare $2 coins of no particular interest to me other than spending cash if I ever get back across the ditch.
I am really hoping you receive my letters soon with some great coins for you.

PrinceTane, of course I don't need payment. I am happy to help you with any coins you need. Don't forget to send me a list of other coins you need. Looking forward to receiving the package from you and also one from Kena in the U.K.
Steve :)

Finances have precluded any noodling of Aussie coins this month but decided to check the work canteen till before lockdown and scored this little beauty. Finding NCLT in circulation always brings a smile to my dial!
