Sounds like your very happy with your find, well done but you should leave some for the rest of us, LOL.

So I've noticed a few people posting about chub and armaguard baggies and the like, so where/how do you get them. From the bank or something..very curious now, please help.

Cheers

Yeah all the single ones are going to a new home soon :)
They don't last long on the forum.

As for baggies or security bags, well there are a few company's that make them, but the main one for Victoria is armaguard

NSW main coin Security Company for coin transportation and distribution is chub..

My local bank no longer deal with armaguard coin bags, as armaguard bags are divided into small amounts >>> you can see the types on my webpage below.
The banks now order in bags of $100 or more for each type of coin.
So now armaguard now deals with businesses and shops.
I end up getting armaguard bags when I spot them in the till at my local shops where my friends work; you just end up swapping the value of the bag with normal change.
Today there was a but load of new bags that went through a certain store today for the Christmas rush, anyway I asked for one bag, and took a few loose ones I could see in the till. I didn't want to be overly greedy, I can say that there will be a few 2011 50c floating around Sale for the next week.
I think it will be like the 2010 COA 50c, they will be around for a few months then disappear. I like to get them first up so you get them in good condition with very little knock and bumps on them.

I did some searching yesterday and found some 2011 50c coins. This included a heap of security bags and I can't afford to keep them all! If anybody is interested let me know (I have put some on ebay to see how they go!). Will sell them for $15.50 each plus postage (which will depend on final weight).

I also have 2010 10c and 50c security bags if interested.

Armaguard services bank branches in this area (NSW central west) with bulk bags containing the little, sealed bags.
They also service the local supermarket with rolls. Deliveries are from Orange depot, which has pensioned off rolling machine.
I suspect supermarket supplies are a central order for the state, placed in Sydney and delivery is prepared there.

still no 2011 50c found here in Sydney... but have been having great luck this year already! today got a "straight from the mint pack" $2 from 2000 in change, yesterday got some nice 2010 50c, and noodling old jars of 1c and 2c coppers turned up some amazing finds including an out of collar, mis-strikes and a beautiful 1967 cracked panchet 1c, a group of interesting rim anomalies, plus American, Mexican, San Salvadorian, NZ and Fiji coppers, including an amazing 2006 Fiji 1c which has only been lightly pressed.
