Nice finds. I am still looking to complete my Matildas coins set and no Big Things coins at all yet. Still, enjoying the hunt though.

Day 564It's always nice when you spot a coin you are looking for when you are taking rolls out of the machine:  No, not a full roll and that was the only Big Things coin I found in the entire noodling session. 60 thousand dollar coins noodled and still no Weetbix coin. Still looking for 2019 W, 2021 MOR, 2023 Giant Murray Cod. Total number of one dollar coins noodled: 60000 Number of different circulation coins found: 148/151 Big Things found: 8/10 NCLT coins found: 43 Mule dollars found: 3

Day 585Ahh noodling... It's happened again. Look what was staring out at me from the end of this roll of dollar coins:  "Aussie kids are Weetbix kids".  But wait there's more. 585 days without finding a 2019 W, then 2 in the same day:   That just leaves the Giant Murray Cod and the mythical 2021 MOR to find (I know crab eater found one but who's to say that didn't start it's life in a mint set) Total number of one dollar coins noodled: 63220 Number of different circulation coins found: 149/151 Big Things found: 9/10 NCLT coins found: 47 Mule dollars found: 3

A really interesting thread, thanks for starting it. One statistic that I find interesting is that you have noodled through 68340 coins to find 3 mules. I haven't kept records but based on my usual weekly noodle I would have noodled around 250000 to find 1 mule. In the same time I have found more than 49 NCLT but only 3 big things coins. Thrill of the hunt keeps me going.
