Would be nice if the Aussie members could post pictures of their newest acquisitions on this thread. I'll start it of with this, I bought it to reside with the normal issue coin and the proof coin that I already have   |

Trout, click send note to staff and ask if they would consider it. It would be good to have it sticky. Also a noodle find thread would be good.

I have asked the powers that be and I think it will be up to the response from this thread that will decide the answer

They are the same size as a Morgan and weigh a lot more So yes they will impress  |

That is the Austral parliament house which was replaced the old one in 1988. Well worth looking up pictures of it on the Internet because it is a very interesting building!
