Found these while noodling $1 coins today. Three proofs and one AFL coin. Also found a 2002 C mint mark $1. Every now and then a proof coin turns up but this is the first time I have found three in one bag. Pity they are as damaged as they are.   |

Thanks Errers and Varietys and jbuck. I have kept the other coins that were proofs that I have found in circulation. I will dig them out and see what they are and post a pic. Stay tuned!

Here are the $1 proof coins that I have found in circulation. There are 5 x 1985, 1 x 1985, 3 x 1987, 5 x 1989, 3 x 1990, 4 x 1991 and one 1995. Circulation has not been kind to them. The photos aren't the best. There is enough of the original condition on the backgrounds to tell they were proof coins but now just a novelty sadly. Now residing in my odds and sods collection.   |

A nice mix and an interesting amount of wear. Proofs usually do not last that long in circulation here. Thank you for sharing! |

Here is another proof coin found in circulation. This time a 1995 $2. Like the others, it lives in the "odds and sods" collection now.   |

Had a good run with the $2 coin bag today. I haven't found many of the 2018 Armistice coins before. Today I found 10 and all in very good condition. The 2014 green dove and 2016 para olympics coins were also in good condition. I wonder why there were so many 2018 Armistice coins together. Anyone have any ideas?  |

In addition to the goodies in the previous post, I also found these coins in $2 rolls. The 5c coin ( or what is left of it) was included in a roll of 25 x $2 coins. The foreign coin took the place of a $2 coin in another roll. I have found a few of them in recent months. Hopefully there aren't any more of them!  |
