When you find the first one the second will show up right after that, good luck.

Day 38

Noodled $50 worth of 5 cent coins and found absolutely nothing of interest.

No 1972, no change-over, no 2019 JC

Usual half a dozen kiwi 5c and none of them were even a 1972.

Total number of 5 cent coins noodled: 5400
Number of different coins found: 57
Number of coins still to find: 1

That 1972 is elusive alright, I have 3 spares - if you honestly can't get one - I will send you one.

The scarce NZ 5 cent is 1973, with just 1 million minted.

Day 41

309 coins into today's 5c noodling session and I found this extremely grubby 1972

Big fat zero

Only found 2 change-over coins in 5709 coins noodled.

Someone else must be hoarding them all.
