Hi all. Long time no talk. Arrived home from WA mid Sept to find the best part of half an acre of garden chest high in weeds Have been 'head down, tail up' since then clearing it all

Got this $2 coin at Eucla as we headed home and have no idea how to classify it. Of course my first thought was MULE! but it's obviously not so I'm stumped

Although the double rim is somewhat faint in places from wear, it would have been very obvious when new. I'd like to get it labelled and tucked away as there's a pile of other errors waiting for my attention.

I would say it's ever so slightly off centre, and I personally would put it back in the wild.

I've seen ones more noticeably off centre than this, and if I can find one of them, you can have it gratis. I'll keep an eye out for one for you.

Just found this one, if you'd like it, just say so & I'll PM you for your address.

Nancy is right. It is very slightly off centre. It seems quite common on $1 and $2 coins IMO.
