Gary Burke Rest in Peace United States 3730 Posts	Posted 03/21/2007 03:45 am In another thread in the Australian section, markn asked me to list the coins I still need. After going through all my storage boxes as well as my safety deposit boxes, I filled my two new Dansco Albums as best I could. I would love to complete the Twenty Cent and Fifty Cent Albums, and start on some other Australian denominations as well. Following are the coins I still need. I would be happy to consider paying for those I need, or perhaps working out trades. Please e-mail me if you are interested. Thanks!!!!

triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9454 Posts	Posted 03/21/2007 6:19 pm Gary, I am sure I have sent you some of these, like the 1966 50 cent and 2001 Bradman 20 cent. I also sent you the 2006 Royal Visit 50 Cent coin on a little purple card. These were all sent in our first trade if I remember correctly. Are you sure you haven't got more stashed away somewhere?

Gary Burke Rest in Peace United States 3730 Posts	Posted 03/21/2007 10:44 pm Steve: Yes I have them, but they are in air-tites, or cards, so I can display them and show them to friends. I hate to take those you mentioned out of protective plastic and put them in the album. I would rather get duplicates for the album. I highly value the coins you sent me, and didn't really intend for them to be album coins. The coins you sent are some of the nicest in my entire collection!!

triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9454 Posts	Posted 03/22/2007 05:12 am Gary, I have about 50 Bradman 20c, so I'll put another one aside for you, for the album. Steve Report this Post to the Staff

markn Pillar of the Community Australia 1295 Posts	Posted 03/24/2007 07:12 am OK Gary, here we go. Next to each item I've put whether I can help you with this and the grade I have. If I cant help you I'll comment on how to get it. Twenty Cent Pieces 1971 - Yes, F 1979 - Yes, F 1983 - No, most of the mintage was melted, mint set only coin 1984 - as above 1985 - Yes, Gem worth about $15 1986 - no mint set only coin 1987 - no mint set only coin 1988 - no mint set only coin 1989 - no mint set only coin 1990 - no mint set only coin 1991 - no mint set only coin 1992 - no mint set only coin 1993 - no mint set only coin 1995 Platypus - Yes EF 2001 Bradman - Yes aUNC 2001 New South Wales - Yes aUNC 2001 Western Australia - No 2001 South Australia - Yes aUNC 2001 Tasmania - No 2004 (Large and Small head varieties. I have one, not sure which) - The small head has a pointed A in Australia and is quite scarce. I can offer up a large head in EF. 2005 Platypus - Yes EF 2005 60th Anniversary of WWII - Yes aUNC 2007 Lifesaver - this is NCLT, currently the cheapest way to get this coin is via a PNC (selling for around AUD$20) or via the 2007 mintset (US$23.50). Fifty Cent Pieces 1966 - Yes aUNC 1981 Charles and Diana - Yes aUNC 1985 - Yes essentially a mint set only coin, worth about $15 1986 - No, mint set only 1987 - No, mint set only 1988 - Yes, UNC worth about $10 1989 - No, mint set only 1990 - No, mint set only 1992 - No, mint set only 1993 - No, Scarce circ coin 1994 - Yes, VF 2000 - Yes, VF (this is the millenium coin I assume) 2000 Royal Visit - Yes, EF 2002 Outback - Yes EF 2002 50th Anniversary of Ascension - No, unfortunately these were on a PNC only and that PNC goes for around $200 2003 50th Anniversary of Coronation - No, again on a PNC only but these go for around $25-30 2005 60th Anniversary of WWII - Yes, EF 2005 Coat of Arms - No 2006 Commonwealth Games X 16 - No, you'd have to buy these as a set, I think they go for $150-200 or so. 2006 Queens 80th Birthday - No, comes on a card for around $20-30 2006 Queens Royal Visit - No, again comes on a card for around $20-30 So there you have it. I'm not sure what you'd want to trade. I am mostly interested in world silver and so on, junk silver is fine too. Perhaps email me so we can work something out. Mark Report this Post to the Staff
