Quote: how long did the 1 dollar take? I got "Serious" with these a year or so ago, I already had quite a few before I looked into the series closely and discovered that I actually only had about 25% of the coins minted. That's when the fun started and the "Hunt" began in earnest. I put the Silver proof part of the collection together within 3 months , There are only 58 different coins minted in Silver.

Hi trout, Had a quick sqiz at your collection but didn't see any of the mobile press coins from the various coin shows. They didn't commence till 2002 and I'm wondering if you discount them?

I have all the mobile press coins and I mark these as "counterstamp" on the2x2's. I do discount the varieties on some counter stamped coins because they are the same design but are stamped a bit lighter.

That's interesting, for me though it's these differences that make the counter stamped coins collectable. I aggree the only way to differentiate some counterstamped coins is by the weak stamping, but there are coins where the incuse diameter of the stamp is slightly larger as well, the 2004 E eureka being one. On the obverse of other coins a star burst effect can be seen directly opposite the stamping zone on the reverse side. At the end of the day we collect what pleases us. Cheers
