Gary Burke Rest in Peace United States 3730 Posts	Posted 06/22/2006 01:20 am Dewey: No problem in my town regarding rolls of coins. The two largest banks, plus my credit union, make rolls available, and then gladly take them back when I bring them in. Hope that positive attitude on their part continues.

gettinIT2getheragain Valued Member United States 69 Posts	Posted 06/24/2006 4:13 pm Ok...now this one is the BEST FIND I have EVER COME ACROSS!!!! Me thinks I need some help from them folks that call themselves the Aussies... (grabs a horn and blows a few 'cavlary notes'). HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok...can't get a shot of it right now, but will soon. Description: 1987 silver-colored coin. About the size of a US penny. Has a portrait of Elizabeth II on the obverse and a pitcure of what looks like a platypus (sp?) on the reverse. There is also a "5" going through part of the plat's bill....btw, cute little creature. This coin is in what I would consider to be a VERY HIGH GRADE....especially for a coin that's made this far of a journey (found in Cartersville, Georgia, USA). CAN SOMEONE HELP?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Edit: Also...we've been finding ALOT of 1970-S nickels in circulation recently...any clue as to why? (Other than the obvious being that someone has raided a collection.)

Sap Moderator Australia 16994 Posts	Posted 06/25/2006 02:25 am GettinIT2gether: that sounds like an Australian 5¢ coin; the animal in question is an echidna, or spiny anteater (related to the platypus, in that they're both monotremes: egg-laying mammals.) Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
toast Pillar of the Community Australia 1092 Posts	Posted 06/25/2006 02:47 am I agree. It's an Aussie Echidna, 5 cent coin. 1987 had a mintage of 73,500,000.
