I have a head start on you! I have already looked through a few hundred dollars worth.
Has not helped at all....
Actually, I dont care who wins, just as long as I find one too.

:) Tis all good, just watch your back trying to lift it in the end hahaha I used to use fat tyres on wide rims with a slot cut in it for money boxes, till I filled it so much I couldnt carry it and the tyre place couldnt break the tyre from the rim as it was too full.
Also had a 44 gallon drum art one of our work places that we filled and used as our end of year party, had to get a forklift to move it around...

So like you get them from circulation right?

There is one in the current Status Int auction. Ref# 6350. To quote... "2007 5c struck from 2 obverse dies. Near UNC. Rare. A similar coin sold for $1,300 at a recent Sydney auction (p)....... $750-$1,200".
I think the auction is this Friday, will be interesting to see what it goes for.

The two questions that I have is:
- How did it happen? (earlier posts on this thread suggest that a 2 headed coin can only be produced deliberately) - Why are they in circulation?
