triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9412 Posts	Posted 06/01/2007 11:34 pm Thanks to the generosity of a fellow worker, I have filled some holes in my Penny collection. Here they are... Only need 6 more to have one from each year. I might be able to afford a 1925 one day, but I doubt I'll ever get a 1930. Steve Report this Post to the Staff

triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9412 Posts	Posted 06/02/2007 05:04 am Graceoutcast, the only ones I need now are 1925, 1926, 1930, 1931, 1937 and 1946. Does anyone know why they didn't mint any Pennies in 1954? Steve Report this Post to the Staff

Bigfella Pillar of the Community Australia 853 Posts	Posted 06/03/2007 06:13 am There is no 1937 either. This is the year of an abdication and a new king. The complete set of 1937 coins consists only of a 1937 crown. The only 1937 pennies produced were patterns. Report this Post to the Staff
humpybong Pillar of the Community Australia 1262 Posts	Posted 06/03/2007 06:24 am I used a 1930 English penny to fill my 1930 gap... Report this Post to the Staff
triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9412 Posts	Posted 06/03/2007 08:50 am Oops! thanks Bigfella. That's one less coin I need. Barry, that's cheating. Steve Report this Post to the Staff
Gary Burke Rest in Peace United States 3730 Posts	Posted 06/04/2007 03:00 am Very nice coins Steve. I assume many dates aren't too expensive to obtain, while others would require a bank loan. I have enjoyed collecting the large English pennies, and am sure it would be fun to put together a collection of Australian pennies also. Report this Post to the Staff
triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9412 Posts	Posted 06/04/2007 07:47 am Gary, a bank loan wouldn't be so bad, for a 1930 penny I would have to sell my house. Steve Report this Post to the Staff
Bluesfil New Member Australia 14 Posts	Posted 06/04/2007 6:24 pm 1930 Pennies are relatively cheap compared to some of the other pre decimals - their appeal is that they are rare and they are icons for the hobby and for investors. They haven't done much price wise for years and there are always one or two available every auction - 20 grand gets a reasonable coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Goodasgold Valued Member Australia 125 Posts	Posted 06/16/2007 10:31 am Choose your first/next 1930 Aust Penny from list as follows: VG - 20k F - 28k VF - 50k EF - 110k aUnc- 150k Unc - 220k chUnc - 325k Gem - 500k Proof - 750k(plus) At first glance may look fairly pricey. The good bit is they're only talking Australian dollars here Report this Post to the Staff
ElleKitty Pillar of the Community United States 819 Posts	Posted 06/17/2007 12:00 am But that's terrible! Every time I get an Australian Dollar, it gets added to my collection. I'll never be able to pay Australian for a coin. ;) On the bright side, one of the other Oceania countries issued a commemorative to the 1930 penny. I think it was Tuvalu? That might do for a filler better than an English penny. Report this Post to the Staff
thesandpit Valued Member 119 Posts	Posted 06/17/2007 04:36 am Sorry, cannot choose from GoodAsGold's list. There are no unc or better 1930 pennies, although there are 6 proofs. Edited by thesandpit 06/17/2007 04:37 am Report this Post to the Staff
Goodasgold Valued Member Australia 125 Posts	Posted 06/17/2007 04:49 am Here we go, guys ... how do you like my ridgy-didge, dinky-die, you-beaut ozzie fake 1930. Reverse fairly convincing, but obverse possitively too good to be true! What do you think? http://users.chariot.net.au/~villai...Page_34.html Report this Post to the Staff
