Today I received $400 of 20¢ from the bank -hours of happy noodling anticipated. What did I get? $100 of "returns" and $300 of uncirculated 2010 platypus.  So, if anyone wants uncirculated 2010¢ please let me know. $100 bags, $4.00 bags or loose coins. I will keep a few but any left over go back next week. Jeff |

This happened to me about a month ago and I put some up in the trade section. Didnt get any responses at all. Sold 2 on ebay for $8 each. |

Jeff,
This sounds like a good opportunity for you to search for larena's "bubble in the water"
With 1500 coins you should even get a good idea of the proportion they made!

I agree with ozcoins. I'd pay for the 2010 bubble!

You should keep them and try to auction off e-bay slowly.

Hi Jeff,
Did you open them or just look the head and tail to tell they are UNC? Also, which bank are you dealing with?

Just as a matter of interest... In what areas do Armaguard distribute coins in bags vs rolls? Up this way, I've only seen paper-wrapped rolls.

I have only had rolls once in Adelaide but armaguard bags very very often.

Just done a $100 bag to select the best examples. No bubbles so I don't expect any in the rest -all same pack date on the label so, almost certainly, came from same mint batch with same die. Interesting thing is four little bags had a coin from a different year with the 2010.  Jeff |

some supermarkets still have rolls of coins for distribution to the shops, both coles and woolies out here have them, even my bank sometimes has rolls, so I figure it must be who ever supplies coins for this area. but the coles rolls are always just unmarked brown paper, so could be internal?

Erkle reminded me about the supermarkets. Most of them still have rolls so I think they must do them internally or get them somewhere else. I will have to pay more attention and see if it has an armaguard sticker on it.

Two banks in town are serviced by Armaguard as is supermarket. Bags for banks and rolls for supermarket?
Maybe supermarket is a State contract with coins processed at a central depot.

I have only seen bags from Armaguard (St George) and rolls from Chubb (Commbank).
I have not paid too much attention to supermarkets.

I was wondering whether bagging was more predominant in metro areas, but it could come down to individual depots. Thanks for the responses.
