I am a 14 going onto 15 in FEB 2013 and my parents own a deli and I happen to find alot of weird and wonderful coins. So... I wish to know the worth of one of those little 50 cent Jubilee coins with a slight yellowy tinge. I have a few of them and they differ from the stock Jubilee coins. Any thoughts? Thanks, Quang.

Jeff Pillar of the Community Australia 877 Posts	Posted 12/28/2012 10:35 pm You have come to a good place to find out about coins and collecting. Have a good look in this section to find out what is worth keeping; scarce years as well as some commemoratives and varieties. Is the colour the only difference or is it the design as well? I am not aware of any variety for these coins. Jeff Edited by Jeff 12/28/2012 10:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff

enworb Pillar of the Community Australia 4411 Posts	Posted 12/28/2012 11:18 pm Welcom to CCF! great to see some younger collectors turning up. Sounds like it is just toned. It is not too unusual to find golden toned early decimal coins. Sometimes they can develop quite a strong gold tinge. If you could try to post a picture we could help a bit more.
