I'm getting the Royal Visit and Queen's Birthday Cupro-Nickel coins, also getting some Gallipoli coins with different MM off shane. I'm too poor for gold, Guess i'll have to win the lottery to get the good stuff in the short term.

Think of it this way; Some of the amount of your taxes will go to the mint (RAM is government mint right?) so it's kind of an investment :lol But if you say "carpe diem", just buy the coins :)

There are 4 coins in this release: 1. 2006 Queen's tour selectively gilded proof 50c. 2. 2006 Q's birthday " " " " 3. 2006 Queen's tour unc 50c 4. 2006 Q's birthday " " The design of reverse of Queen's tour is stunning. The 2 proofs can be purchased in a top notch wooden presentation case. The 2 proofs are the fist ever gilded Aussie 50c No, I don't have any financial interest in this release !!

The selectively gold plated 50c coins have to take the prize for the best new release even with alot of top notch competition.
But I hope the mint doesn't do a guilded 50c piece every year. The RAM tend to over do a good thing.
