Looks a lot different, HUH?
Title: New issues planned for 2010 Post by: Brissyboy on December 09, 2009, 02:40:52 PM The One Dollar "mintmark/privymark" coinage for 2010 will follow the theme of "A 100 Years of Australian Coinage". I think collectors will be quite pleased with the new theme's design and it will certainly appeal to those that follow "Royal" themed coinage too. Unsure at this stage if there will be any "counterstamp mark" coins stamped at Shows in 2010. This will depend on the RAM attending the Show with their portable press that stamps the host city's "mark" onto already struck coins.
There will be a commemorative Fifty Cents coin released in January 2010 to mark Australia Day. Again collectors should be very pleased with the design of the reverse. A silver proof version will also be available with gold highlights.

Also, good to see you back! Title: Re: New issues planned for 2010 Post by: Brissyboy on December 11, 2009, 04:35:31 AM Thanks Anna, we had Dad come home from hospital yesterday and he is doing really well now. I'll go back to work today as so much to do before the Christmas break and my January holidays.
I read in CAB Magazine that the RAM will be at the February 6th and 7th 2010 Perth ANDA Show and will have a special "P" privymark dollar only available at that Show. It is rare for the RAM to strike coins with a Perth mark on as it is usually reserved for coins struck by the Perth Mint. Better put your order in with your local coin dealer that will be at the Perth ANDA.

Thanks Anna, unfortunately we had to admit him back into hospital on Sunday when he came down with a bladder infection. He has progressed well this week and we hope he will be released on Monday in time to fly to Mackay for Christmas with his granddaughter and her new baby and family. Hope you have a great Christmas and get lots of numismatic presents.Hope your Dad continues to improve quickly.
