Thank you Nancy,
Let me sort out what I have and I'll send you the list.
Guess the non-circulated will be out of my collection as well.
Except for the coin in Snooba's avatar.

If memory serves me correct I am lucky enough to have the 2006 Queens Royal Visit but quite honestly I will have to go and look to make sure. Snooba takes care of me, along with other Aussies, and I usually forget over a short period of time what I have and what I don't. Most coins are admired for a few days and then put away. I managed to get a Chinese 1997 Unicorn just today, all the way from China, that will be admired until this weekend then off to storage she goes! I might point out I thought I was getting the one ounce coin but received the half ounce. Guess it can sleep with my half ounce wolves from Canada?

Terry, Yes, it was the 2006 Royal Visit 50c that I sent to you in a 2x2 holder. I've sent several to various members, and at the moment I'm frantically searching to see if I have another one that I can send to Mila_cent. So far, no luck! But I'll keep searching. Snooba.  |

I was so so so lucky to get the Queen's birthday comm. and the Royal Visit comm. both from Downies when they first came out. I had no idea these two coins had become so expensive or hard to find. o.o
Sometimes it's hard to keep straight what coin is put into circulation and which one is commemorative only. Especially when you live half the world away. -_-
Edit: Kittys really shouldn't post within half an hour of waking up.

Forgive me for I have sinned. I have removed the coin from the stamp booklet in order to image it better. This must be Australia's most beautiful 50c.   |

I took mine out of the card that it came in, but left it in the plastic bubble. The card is safely stored with my scanty note collection, but the coin is with its brothers and sisters in the album.  And, just to let you know, there is another Commem. 50 cent piece out to celebrate the Diamond Anniversary of Queen Elizabeth. I believe the official date is September 3rd. http://www.downies.com:80/northamer...&tid=070723T <-- Downies Order link. |

Learjet, I received the packet in today's mail! I'm in awe! I love it. I'm sitting and typing and turning the coin every which way. It is beautiful ! The Silver Jubilee is also getting the same treatment. The 1954 Florin which is my year of birth and 1962 Florin. I have been admiring these but never questioned it. What a WONDERFUL surprise !  Kevin You've made my day so much better ! mila_ Edited by Mila_cent

Glad you like the package! My photos don't do the Queen's visit 50c justice. It's a pretty coin that really needs to be seen in hand to appreciate.

My favorite 50 Cent Piece so far is the 1992, which appears to be a reverse proof. Beautiful!

G'day Gary -
my Macca's says '92 was "mint set only"
Are you onto something ?

Peter, I'm sure you are correct.
I was just describing its appearance.

The 2002 Accession of Elizabeth II, in the PNC is expensive @ $275.00. However, collectors could consider the proof version if the complete set is required. These are still around issue ($60 - $80)
