I must say I had a good day today I also found an upset 2001 dollar coin (about 15 degrees) amongst some other good coins but I thought I wouldn't mention that as I didn't want to appear to be bragging , but what the heck, these good days don't come that often. My wife and kids don't seem to appreciate these finds so it's good to share it with you guys.

Mate you have done the hard yards So it ain't bragging. We all love to see pic's of coins that are unusual, rare or just plain interesting. Show and tell mate  Edited by trout1105

I have only ever found one type of upset coin (2010 50c).
I have done some searching of $1 and 20c, but havent found any in those.

Must be going through a lucky streak at the moment just found another 30 degree rotated 2010 50 cent coin.  Not as good a grade as the first one but still happy with it. TCH |

Hi, As promised here are the 2 2010 50 cent upset coins I found last night, within about 15 minutes of each other. The photo is not the best but you can make out the upset error  . I still can't believe my luck. I'm hoping that some parent isn't screaming at one of their children for spending coins from their upset collection. I better put mine away before my kids get onto the |

Just found my first upset 1966 10 cent coin (about 15 to 20 degrees rotation). I v'e been through about 450 1966 10 cent coins to find this one so I know it is rare but until I find my next one I can't really estimate just how rare this error is. Does anyone have any idea on the scarcity of this upset error?
TCH

you better get rid of that green stuff  ,its the only thing I touch on Coins,usually 5 minutes in an ultrasonic cleaner(water with a dab of detergent)then a rub with Olive Oil then placed in a sealed holder usually stops the Verdigris growing but doesn't remove spots. |
