Jeff Pillar of the Community Australia 877 Posts	Posted 01/02/2008 6:12 pm I sorted $400 of 50¢ Yesterday and found 16 CoF (8 different -everything except Queensland). One was not worth keeping though. That is at least twice what I would expect normally and also found a 1985, 1993, rams head, several good Charles & Di and Royal visits plus a large number of extremely good (but common year) ones from 1970 to 1984. My wife suggest that coming up to Christmas if people are short of spending money, they cash in their money boxes -more boxes cashed than any other time of year. That releases harder to find and good condition coins back to circulation. I have my doubts that the Money Box factor would be significant -maybe I was just lucky this week. Does anyone have a better theory or comments on this suggestion? Jeff Report this Post to the Staff
Peter THOMAS Pillar of the Community Australia 2830 Posts	Posted 01/02/2008 7:35 pm G'day, I suspect that Mrs Jeff may be on the money, so to speak. Please keep up the good work: I haven't got a full set of CoF yet, so maybe we can talk a swap ... Peter in Darwin Report this Post to the Staff

b_j_w_79 Valued Member Australia 414 Posts	Posted 01/13/2008 6:55 pm I'd like to thank Nancy for the swap we did. The coins are great. The federation coins are really becoming difficult to find so if you want some (without buying them) I would start looking for them and saving them now while you still can (sounds a bit dooms day or something ). I'm still happy to do some swaps with other people if they are interested (for federation and/or other coins). Report this Post to the Staff
Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 01/13/2008 11:25 pm I think I would be inclined to agree with you wife Jeff, I've also noticed some pretty good looking older coins. I hang on to all 'good lookers'. Report this Post to the Staff
