Awhile ago some of you may remember that I was in search of picking up some Aussie coins..



Well I managed to pick up a few and now I have a bunch of questions.

#1) Is there a decent site any of you guys/gals use to find the value of certain coins, dates and varieties that may exist. I'm a canadian so this is all new to me.. I use a site call coinsandcanada.com and I love it. Wondering if there's a similar type site for Aussie coins.

#2)Is there also a site that deals with grading. One dealer I spoke to said that Aussie standards are quite a bit higher than Canadian standards. Below I have listed the coins I picked up in their respective grades according to me using Canadian standards, but I fear that my grades may be 1-2 grades below Aussie standards, and for valuation I'd like to make sure I'm using the same grading system.

#3) Would like your opinion on values ...

#4) Eventually I think I might want some help filling in the missing dates...


Let me know what you think.. this is what I managed to pick up so far:

Good haul, only 25 left out of 53! How long did it take you to build it up? have you gotten anymore as of date? All the best with the collection.

Bluesheet is Walter Eigners site and it is an excellent resource

The grades are in "Sheldon" so you don't have to worry about using the Aussie grades.
The values are in AUD so all you have to do is convert that to Canadian dollars
