G'day Shane, my thoughts are that it would have to be an error as the date and the monarch are both on the obverse? What sort of coin is it? (God only knows where you find these  ) |

A 1985 die only exists with the maklouf bust as far as I know. Look at the 5 very carefully on an example if you have one to see that it hasnt been altered. It would not be considered a mule as that obverse die technically does not exist.

Hey Shane, I don't think anyone here considers you anything but another one of us.
The 2000 50c with the Royal Visit reverse is the only one to have the Gottwald image on the obverse.
The 2000 Millennium 50c has the Ian Rank Broadley obverse.
Does that help at all?

no because they are both royal visit coin in the picture so that is not meant to be I take it it would be a error or a mule if this were both royal visit coins

 Enworb, I think the Gottwald one is a little unflattering. Shane I think it would be a mule if you had a Millennium reverse 50c with the Gottwald queen you've pictured. |

The definitive 1984 dollar with the Machin bust is a one year type.

They are both the gottwald obverse. The IRB obverse is the current one we use and looks a little different.

i get it now thanks unicorn
well I think I discoverd a new type there must have been 2 goltwald head designs used on the royal visit 50c coin as the 2 crowns in the picture are not the same or am I seeing things
in 2000 milleniums coin was the first odverce head of irb and that head was not used on the 2000 royal visit so mcdonald book says so there must be 2 designs for the royal visit by goltswald those crowns are not the same or maybe 3 types as the mcdonald book picture has the crown from the left picture on the head of the right picture I think in the left picture it looks like a crown in the right picture it looks like a tiara much smaller crown
