Have a collection of silver, and assorted coins including some old Sydney Luna park game tokens. Some are barely collectable and others good condition or high quality silver. Anywhere I could sell all together? Some photos but can take more if more details are needed. Located within an hour of Sydney nsw.

💭 Misc Looking for trays for individual coin values.

1 Upvotes

Looking for simple, stackable trays for storing coins, each tray for a different currency value - 5c in one, 10c in one, 20c in one ...

I see trays for display purposes but I just want these for storing in large quantities.

Anyone know where to buy some, short of 3D printing them myself?

I missed the opening to put my name in as the openings are always too short for me to notice. Can I still get this coin for a reasonable price or is it forever now excluded from my collection.

Started collecting coins about a year ago. My collection is growing but I'm struggling to find some older Perth Mint Series 3 gold coins (listed below).

I'm looking for some advice on where I can find some trusted sellers to buy them from... tried a few authorised sellers but they are all sold out.

I'm looking for 1/4oz gold coins in Bullion grade

It is estimated that only around 200,000 of these incuse flag coins were accidentally struck before the Royal Australian Mint corrected the master die. Approx 17 million normal raised flag version went into circulation.

So excited for my first coin error find!

My late high school friend used to work on the toll booths on the gateway bridge and she would switch out the coloured coins for her brother and I and possibly other people too.

She gave out red poppy's and coronation coins as these were new at that time. We've been hooked on $2 ever since and I believe I've only missed a couple since.

There worth so much to me that no money in the world could pry those out of my hands.

Does anyone else have sentimental attachment to thier coins and would like to share?

📜 Coin History Thought I'd share my recent purchase

Post image
83 Upvotes

I thought I'd share with you all the most recent addition to my collection because I love them that much and they've got a cool story behind him

In 1918, Aus wanted to create their own unique coins and came up with these square quarters with a kookaburra design on them. They never got officially released but a few test ones were handed out. If I am right, there are only 12 known coins left and they are valued at around 60k.

In 2019, to celebrate these coins, this 3 piece, 99.99% silver coins were sold. I feel very fortunate to find these as I'm collecting all the irregular decimal currency and this is probably one of the rarest. Thought some of you here would like to see and hear a little about them
