The missus empties her hand bag for me every couple of weeks,it must be like a work out carrying all that weight around,and thats just the change.Anyway,I sometimes get lucky and score a double bar,or a 2 buck rim Cud,but this week I spotted this lil fella,  Pretty cool I thought  |

It's a great error coin. I have 3 of them, took about 10 yrs to find them. There are many other 1999 with similar errors of different sizes in the same place, but this is the 'fat' one. Very Nice! life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved

I don't see the error here, either. As for the blob, there appears to be a similar one at about 5:30 so I don't think there's anything wrong with it.

Looks interesting... and youve got me interested... I also don't know what error is in there..?  perhaps a pic of a no-error coin and we can turn this into a "spot-the-difference" by comparison? |

The "blob" at 5:30 is the end of a tail feather, so it belongs there. On the other hand the one at 3 o'clock is completely foreign.

The lyrebird is an Australian bush bird, and that's a genuine leaf stuck in his feathers. That's a genuine leaf, not a fake!
