Found a couple of interesting ones in today's lot of dollar coins.

First up, a Parkes C mintmark - seen a bit of circ. unfortunately.

Then a rather interesting 1986 Peace dollar. Bet you didn't know there was a pad-printed version..

It must be a pattern with that uneven printing.

The 1986 $1 is definitely an "error" coin - should make a fortune on ebay.

Today's lot of dollars didn't have any mules- darn it, no rotated 2001 COFs, or mintmarks, but did find a minty lustrous Landcare (not a m/m one, though...)
Another 2009 Post Office coin was in there as well. Second one I've found: are they common or something?..

I have never found one (yet). I think the 200 years of post was only available as a PNC and quite a small issue.

Ooops...meant to say Year of the Outback..

They were a PNC only coin, those Post Office ones, so are NCLT's
The two I've found came from different banks about a month apart, so if there was an original source, I'm not sure where
