trout1105 Pillar of the Community Australia 7096 Posts	Posted 10/14/2011 07:34 am I might put a few kilo's of pennies through the next ball mill I reline and I could make a fortune on ebay IF I had no conscience like the bloke selling the tumbled 2cent for$200 Report this Post to the Staff
dibby33 Valued Member Australia 465 Posts	Posted 10/14/2011 09:46 am Nice coin. I keep all the really damaged / dirty / suspiciously stained coins that I find. Never seen one that good / bad before though. Report this Post to the Staff
Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 10/14/2011 4:16 pm Thanks for the links Jeff. I'll give the 2c a miss , but will most likely try for the 2 bob. I have several 2001 platypus 20c coins that were struck with a die that was about to shatter, so the 2 bob will have some great company, if I win it. Your 20c from P1 is, as you already know, road kill. Yesterday I took delivery of 2 x wavys that I bought privately! My newest babies. Soon to be delivered is a 'set of sextuplets' coinwise. life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved Report this Post to the Staff
Jeff Pillar of the Community Australia 877 Posts	Posted 11/11/2011 02:29 am Here's another found today. I have converted it to monochrome (grey scale) to keep finer detail intact for your viewing pleasure. My guess is it has been tumbled.

nealeffendi Pillar of the Community Australia 852 Posts	Posted 11/12/2011 11:22 pm The posters coin has damage from being on a road (I know because I walk at least 10 hours/week for excercise and I keep an eye out for free money so I pick up at least 10 coins/week with similar damage). Jeff, the damage on that 50 cents is consistent with some form of tumbling damage but must have been in there for a while to get that battered. Report this Post to the Staff
