In an old list of decimal variations I saw reference to a 2001 five cent flamingo 5. Does anyone know what this is?

Thanks Zic. Looks like an error to me rather than a variation. I was curious because it was in a list of variations - so unless there are more - looks like a one-off error

Any idea if this could bring any premium? on this error or variation how much possible value for this coin.

If I saw a nice one for sale I'd pay $2 - $3 for it. Cuds aren't all that sought after here in Oz.

Here are the close up shot of the coin. It was not much give attention to this coin untill this tread make me to check the coin closely. Upon checking here comes with new discovery it seems the flamingo has an eye. Look at the photo below and give some of your finding.  In this shot the eye of flamingo seems present.

Hi..i found this 5 cent coin not long ago. The weight of the coin is correct and I've seen that there is one just like it undated between 1966-1984. Does anyone know how many ther are and what they a worth? Error Coin Spotlight - Low Pressure Strike 1966-1984 5 Cent. But the one I have is exactly the same but between 2000-2016. Sorry I cant upload any images at the moment

I was told the double head or tails is a scam..? Made in a shed somewhere. I seen 3 dies up for sale the other day so I guess it wouldn't be hard to do. Any of this true? If not I might buy one. cheers

ilic86, your coin appears to be a die setup or adjustment strike. Quite attractive to modern error collectors.
