I finally managed it. I finally found some time to properly photo and database my Decimal and Pre-decimal Australian coins. Didn't know I had that much. They're kinda scarce at this part of the world, so my thanks goes to three members in the forum, Jeff, Yass and Enworb who have taken so much trouble and paid so much dollars to ship many great coins from down under so, once more, thank you very very much guys, without you, I would never have that much of Australian coins here as far as in Turkey. Below are some photos of the pre-decimal per-type set I have.  Here goes the decimals, I've got a complete 1 & 2 cents year run, along with several 5 and 10 cents, not complete, and a near-complete 20 cents date run (the latter are not photographed yet, but will be soon) Thanks Jeff for completing those for me.  These are several proof and high-grade uncirculated Aussie $1 coins, along with several others. Thanks Yass for the proofs  Below are the CC 50 cents, and I believe this is a complete run, also I have the tilted 1970 50c and the wide 1994 50c as well. I have the 2001 Federation 20c's and 50c's as well, thanks to Jeff and Yass again. Perhaps you'll notice the double bar 1979 50c and 1973, 1993 & 1997 rarish date 50c's, those are from Enworb.   Well, my collection of Australian coins still are missing a few, specially in the pre-decimal section, but I still do very much enjoy having those. Turkey and Australia has some history between, so it's also giving me another pleasure collecting those. Not shown on the photos, I've got those as well: -5 Dollars 1988, -1984 & 1985 Mint uncirculated sets -an uncomplete predecimal half penny and penny date and mintmark run, around 30 coins (most of those are from Enworb and Jeff, again) -a couple of doubles.

Yes, I am always looking for new stuff. Would love to. PM me about that.:)
Appleangel07 : Thanks for the comments, yeah without help I never be able to manage that, since I've traded almost %80 percent of what you see from fellow forum members. I've purchased only a couple, mostly newer predecimal florins and a ahilling or two.

Karloning, after seven more posts, I think you'll be able to email other members from the list, and other members can also email you too. So, that means very soon!. After hitting to 50, could you please let me know? thanks.

The four of the 50c's on the right-bottom line of the 50c tray are NCLT coins. Those four has been sent to me by Yass over time. I've put them into the tray along with other 50c buddies. :)

Wow! You are dedicated! That's a great collection. What are those pages in the second pic? They look like a nice way to store coins. Are they safe to store in?

Oh yes, I am! I very much enjoy Australian 20c and 50c coins, also American half dollars, Great British decimal 50p's and pre-decimal half crowns. I think I like rather large coins. When I was a kid, most coins here are above average size.
The pages seem to be mylar, actually they're shipped to here inside those and I still could not found a better housing for them. I believe mylar sleeves or similar are fine for circulated modern coins in short to moderate term, but where I live can be really humid in summers, I eventually try to move everything to capsules.

Thanks guys, yes they're pretty lovely indeed. They're hard to get together this far, Enworb, the tray system is a little bit expensive, but considering the humidity in summers of where I live, it's almost essential. By the way, you are recognizing some of the coins above, yeah:)

May I please ask, what is this 50ΒΆ coin?  I have not seen this one, I understand it is a NCLT, is it from a set? |
