Went to the coin shop today and bought a scout dollar, Koala dollar and B Privy Mark dollar. The 3 dollars cost me 21 dollars. Mmmm.

B coat of arms privy mark dollar.

Scouts dollar.

Colour Koala dollar. Can't photograph this coin properly. The pad printing looks pretty bad close up and a photo makes it worse. I had a printer 15 years ago with this resolution Lol.

Nah I paid close to retail. I'm just making light of the fact that I paid $21 for coins with 3 dollars total face value.

3 dollars. But it's a circulating coin so if your lucky you might get a good one at face value.

That was how long our first coat of arms lasted before it was changed to the current one.

This design was deemed to not represent the individual states sufficiently.

Despite being superseded in 1912, this design was still used on some of our coins, continuously on our sixpence right up to 1964.
