I put this post here on PURPOSE as I can't seem to find the original post concerning the Netherlands 2006 silver commemorative for Australia? Yes, I know, I am getting old and can't seem to find anything without a map but a few of you actually have requested I order the coins which I just did and I have also made payment so I NEED to hear from those of you who placed an order for this unc. silver $5 Euro to make sure I have your address and you have mine. The coins, with shipping, will cost $6.90 each (my cost) so please get in touch or at least answer this post so I can determine WHO (ordered) gets these coins when they arrive. Will advise when the anticipated ship date out of the Netherlands will be and also when they are on the way to each of you.
I still can't believe I can't find that darn post! Been sniffing way too much black powder smoke I guess?

If you need a few more Terry, let me know and I make a run to the post office to get a few more, they are going as quick as fresh donuts at the moment, but there are still availible in the cards.
Greetings, Carl

As you can see I finally found it but do want all the recipients of this coin to know they have arrived and will start being shipped out today.

Terry,
Don't forget to feed the turtle a bit extra this time. He may have to swim around some storms.

Been feeding that turtle since his last trip!! He won't go around as he prefers to go under (deep) lot calmer down there! The package went out today and I used an envelope to avoid customs declarations. Darned if the postal authorities didn't ask me what was inside as they ran their fingers over it. I told them it was a homemade birthday card and token with no value so they let it go! Don't know what excuse I will use the next time!!! So, the turtle is on the way!

Gary yours has been laid back my friend! If you want to wait until you get back from Europe that is no problem. Have a great trip!

Whilst we all talk about the UNC ones and the proof ones....the Aussies one is also issued in Alu-Bronze. Here is a stock photo of that coin....   The 2006 $5 Duyfken Al-Bronze BU commemorates the 400th anniversary of Duyfken's exploration of Australia. The coin features a unique 'GZ' mintmark found on the reverse which represents the Dutch phrase 'Groot Zuydtlandt' (Great South Land). Measuring 38.74mm in diameter this Australian legal tender $5 is set in a freestanding, official RAM pack. |

Nice picture and coin.
It is a shame it is a $5 coin.
