Has any one seen these yet? I was doing my weekly change examination and found one (I have few of the pensioner $1). I called the Mint and apparently they are in circulation. In addition, I have seen a few 2009 20s and 50s.
I received the 20 in change. Quite a good coin, though, it has three marks on the lower left on the base line of the 2 (from right to left) it appears to be an extension of the left hand claws
Was in my dealers the other day to order my 2009 sets, and the prices have increased. As I understand, these increases are to off-set the rising costs to produce normal circulating coinage?
I saw my first in change today. I got into work around 7.55 and the Bloke (Guy) who works in the opposite office, threw me a 1966 20 cent, a coin in VG to a almost fine condition. He said,"Its not offen that I see a 66 20 now". I looked at at, doubled looked and got my mag glass to make sure and said, "True Mate and its very rare to see a wavy base". I got various mentions of price, from $25 to $150, I would say that it is around $45. I gave him 2X2 to put it in.
Folks, They are $9 per hundred, with $6.50 flat postage. According to staff, this postage cost is the same for 100 or 1000. Better check with them but. The sizes are in mm: 17.5, 20, 22.5, 25, 27, 27.5, 30, 32.5, 35, 37. 5, 39.5. There are other sizes 40mm to 53mm. These are 2.5x 2.5 and cost 25 cents each or 22 cents each per 100.
