I have three more to look for.
Strictly out of pocket change for face value.

Another that seems to be quite scarce?........
2019 JC 50 Cents - total 70,000 only minted that were issued into circulation.

@Chm8Tin2 - Woah.... that's a letter coin every 63 dollars assuming no double ups (very unlikely). Say a 30% double up works out at a letter coin every 50 coins noodled so a 2% strike rate. I average a 0.6% strike rate in Brisbane. Just what are the folks doing at Brandon? Buying fish'n'chips with letter coins? Tossing letter coins in the tip jars? Whatever it is, it's a far better strike rate than Brisbane and I suspect the Gold Coast as well (Coaster?). Awesome noodling.

@Chm8Tin2 - Yeah, funny, I got an Anzac 20c Distinguished Service Medal in a coin roll from CBA. I get all my coins (well most) from CBA so not sure what the other banks are like. Kiwi coins (mainly 20c) are very common in 20c rolls and bags. I'm actually surprised if I don't find one. It's still a mystery why someone would use a NCLT coin to pay for goods at face value. I wonder if they are coins stolen from drawers etc. during house robberies. Just a dollar or 20c as far as the thieves are concerned.

Good luck with the 1972 5c - it took me probably 11 years to find my first one, though I've probably averaged one a year since then. They're still out there!
