I have several questions.

First, half pennys, pennys, one cent pieces, and Two Cent Pieces are no longer being minted in Australia, right?

Secondly, if one wanted to collect those coins through purchase or trading, which dealers would be recommended?

Thirdly, are there folders or albums available for the above-mentioned coins, and where can they be purchased?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

2) Bigfella

In my opinion pre-decimal (half pennies, pennies, florins etc) is the more interesting part of our currency.

....it is also when it starts to hurt your pocket when you look at collecting them in the higher grades...

That's also why I like pre-decimal. Both types of wallets can afford them. You can build up a penny collection 50C at a time and slowly move onto the $5 ones etc. Or jump straight into $3000 1923 HP.

Works for everyone.
