It was a lovely pre- Christmas / Christmas experience for me.
In early December I was hunting for the 2019 $1 A, U, S coins, like a lot of fellow CCF members.
So when I did my shopping I would always ask for shiny 1dollar coins in my change. Without being more specific, mind you
In one of the shops I visited the attendant searched the various tills and gave me a bag of shiny new coins that I exchanged for a bill of equivalent value
Later I found that most of the coins in the bag were 2019 coins. So I had enough complete sets for family members.
I am of the old school and believe that a special effort deserves reward. It should not be taken for granted. So I selected one set of AUS coins from out of the bag and returned these to the shop attendant and mentioned the competition. The surprised and happy expression on the shop attendants face was my early Christmas present
I then entered the competition and received the folder from the RAM early in the new year. My set of AUS coins were duly inserted into the empty spaces

The folder is free.
Check out these 2 sites
https://www.news.com.au/finance/roy...d0f7e681d858

https://dollardiscovery.com.au/
The way I read it is that you may still be able to 'register' until 8 April for the folder, as long as less than 50000 have done so before you. The News.com article states 5000, but I'd be more inclined to believe the 50000 as per the RAM site.

Good luck.

According to the latest Royal Australian Mint Report the $1 Discovery Coin (A,U,S) has been a resounding success.

It will be interesting to see how the current hyped-up 'A' to 'Z' $1 coin campaign fairs. https://auspost.com.au/great-aussie-coin-hunt
