Looks like Australia (Not sure been too long, just guessing based on memory) 10 cents? I have a bunch of these lying in my pile of unwanted world coins. Somebody has put cuts into it or may be ex-jeweler. Worth face.

Yep, the "cuts" are post-mint damage. Perhaps to mount as jewellery or some similar attachment, as zxcccxz says.

Well done on the Incused!  The 10c is as others have stated, just PMD, but keep looking and you'll soon start to find some real errors.  life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved

Hi ksgmaree  , congrate's on the find's. You do not need to have an expensive camera! 2 MP will do just a good of a job as 18 MP. As long as your Phone and/or Camera have Super Macro + a little practice. Even a PC Printer Scan should give a good enough result for you to post your Coin's. As for your 2012 50ct Bubble coin, that is something new to me/maybe all  . I think we need a Picture of this coin to verify the Error? Cheer's jpl.. PS, your last lot of Pic's in your post ( Who Know's) are not to bad! Would also love to see your Incused Flag!! Edited by jpl

Okay I will upload it into a new topic? I'm not too sure how to add one here again? On ebay there is a 2012 50 c bubble for sale and the next thing I knew I picked up one with a bubble! Thank you :) |

The 2012 50c Bubble is real, I've seen images of it. There's a small bubble on the long blade of grass behind the emu's neck/back at approx the 2 O'clock position.
