This counts as circulation coins as Triggersmob went through a lot of change to get me all this good stuff (Yes he also brought some stuff too - but whose counting).  Sets 2 and 3 of the Alphabet dollaz  17 of the 26 coins from the 2019 set of alphabet dollaz - these were circulating until recently.  The bag behind includes a lot of recent circulation coins and nice pieces he got for me. Thanks Triggersmob - a Bonza addition to my trew blew Aussie collection. He also got me the WIGGLES collection - but thats blatant NCLT! Next goal - a spew roo!

Me thinks they were removed from circulation a while ago (unless of course there was some cheating involved and they were removed from a tube). I speak from experience when I say that it's a hard slog finding a full set of the 2019 series nowadays  - and they won't be lustrous like those nice coins you've got there Princetane.

And DG if you are offering - A spew roo. Just the name puts me into paroxlysms of laughter. A search on the site found several threads on Spew roos going back to 2011!

I think I did put some error dollars aside when I first started noodling. I don't collect error coins per se so kept these more out of curiosity. Will have a check though I think my specimens had less chunder than the coins above. I also have some rabbit ears somewhere. Will put them aside for you if I can find them.

At my Auckland coin club meeting the other night we usually have a show and tell section after our talk.
Most of the time its my latest halfcrown or florin - but last Wednesday it was the Australian alphabet dollars that Steve sent me, I took the tubes of set 2 and 3 out and arranged them on the table. Not even passing it around, like we are supposed to. On display was several 19th century medals, a prutah coin from Israel from like 50BC or something, a UNC 1715 shilling, Mughal silver rupees, a Roman wedding ring and Byzantine solidus - yet everyone mobbed me and went nuts admiring these Aussie Alphabet dollars - it was crazy.
Sometimes its the newer stuff that amazes.

I posted this in another thread but I think it belongs here as well. After all it's not often coloured NCLT is found in circulation. 2015 Unlikely Heroes: Ship's Cat
