Take a look at ebay item no 290054220843, recently sold for AU$299. There's a fair amount of info in the description as well.

Also item 320056023726, buy it now $299.

triggersmob - Thank you Steve, you are correct! This is my most loved coin of all time!


tiddyathome - Wow who's a lucky ducky!

Do you know a grade on this coin? As with all coins this is extremely important, as I'm sure you know. But to give you a rough guild, the new 14th edition of Macca's...

UNC - $1000 AUD
CHOICE UNC - 1300 AUD

Now to confuse you a little it also states on the next page with the picture...

EF - $1200 AUD
UNC - $2100 AUD

And the reason I mention both prices is I feel the second especially for the UNC grade is more in line to what I feel would be it's true worth.

[I really have very little knowledge of grading but I do live near Macca and I might see if he can have a look at it next time I am in town. And yes you are right I am a "lucky ducky" one of my freinds nearly dropped the phone when I rang and told her. She like me is only new to collecting. Your help is taken very happily.
THANK YOU./quote]

Hey tiddyathome, I just realized you're (new to the forum)Aussie. A big welcome to you. Congrats on finding the wavy. I'm still looking, they're pretty hard to find. I check about $100 of 20¢ each week.

tiddyathome - The reason you have yet to be given a mintage or any a like is no one knows... But I promise you this....

Irrespective of what one might put forward as a mintage - It 's the rarest Aussie decimal coin you would very hope to find in true UNC.

thanks for that. I have put this one away from little hands. I think i'll be holding on to this one for a long time. Chances for finding another seem to be very slim. It would now have to be my fav. coin as well now. I love it.
