The dog knocked over a cane box thingy today, that over the years, all types of stuff has been thrown in....pens, lego, loose change etc. Anyway, there was a heap of 5c, and 10c in there, as I was picking them up, spotted this

I took a double take. Only 1 million in circulation apparently.

Now in storage.

The bank saves coins for me if they spot them come through, and today one person saved the "red" coin and then showed me two rolls will and orange coin on the end of each roll, so got the rolls and ended up with 7 of them, they came from security rolls and not mint rolls so still circulated

what type of bank,... mine wont pass anything back out the window once it's gone in.

They talk about it with me in suncorp,.. and will even show stuff off, but that's it,.. so I point out to other customers to go to one of the coin shops when they are at the window with something different now,... last one was some error type $5 note that is smaller than normal,.. so the guy kept it to go check it out,... the tellers were all good with it cause they know they can't give it to anyone else(bugger).

Something else to look for, as I am the bar manager of bowls club will make looking for those 50 cent coins mentioned a lot easier. Thanks for the info, cheers Coachie.
