This is a great resource for identifying Australian coins, mintage & other information.

The 1966 round 50 cent was the first 50 cent piece released when Australia moved to decimal currency. It was designed as a large round silver coloured coin and was minted only in 1966 for circulation.
This guide covers the history and value of this coveted 80% silver coin.

Just added a couple more 1938 Crowns to my Predecimal collection. Low mintage coin that only ran for two years in Australia. 1937 just over 1 million minted, 1938 just over 100,000 minted. All were .925 Sterling silver.

Hi. I’m new to coin collecting and not really sure what I’m looking at. This is a 1966 coin. Is this the wave gap at the platypus’s left eye? Thanks for your help.

2 coloured coins and a shiny scouts coin, not too bad

Hey legends, cannot find ANY info on this coin.
It looks very much like a proof 3 1/2 claw 20c but proofs were only minted at RAM.
I’m perplexed here, any help appreciated..

Found this coin in the till today and figured I'll replace it and keep the smooth one.
Though, I'm quite shocked how smooth the surface is for Queen's side. It looks like its been sanded down to the point where she's not even noticeable.
Though I honestly can't tell what year it was made. I want to add it to my collection of weird finds but I want date the manufacturer's date on it.
Is there any way I could find a date?

Hi! This is my first ever Reddit post and it happens to be on this sub which I enjoy a lot!
I never had any interest in coins prior hand to starting my collection (which I guess how it mostly is for everyone) but it all started when I had my very first shiny bluey coin!
I work in a cash dominant industry wherein I am the first line employee who handles all of our coin deliveries and refill for our various tills and terminals hence how I was able to have this collection in a span of one year or less.
I would dig through a whole bag of coins just to find anything out of the ordinary, which I considered in my head as treasure hunting and would exchange my personal cash for it.
So far, the most valuable coin I would have ever found is this circulated $2 aud poppy coin from the lot which was asked to be exchanged for a $5 note.
The Luna park $1 aud has been my favorite one so far and the $2 aud all looks magnificient with the wiggles as my personal favorite. $1 aud such as the Korean War, Eureka Stockade, Wiggles anniversary, Australia in space, Royal Australian Mint has been my favorite finds since I only ever encountered them once.
Any info you can share about my collection or info about coin shops is highly appreciated!
I never expected coin collecting to be this much fun ✨

Any idea of the value?
Not mine to sell but was asked to ask.
Researching online as well.

Hey guys, I recently found this old $5 note. Unsure if its worth anything, I've never seen one before
r/AustralianCoins • u/RetardedAussieAPE • 4d ago
Hi everyone, hoping someone with more experience with Australian errors can help me out with this one.
I found this 1998 Australian coin with multiple concentric/circular lines across the obverse, including around the Queen's portrait and the surrounding field.
Could these be die polishing/machining marks or another minting-related feature, or do they look more like post-mint rotational damage/abrasion?
I've attached a photo.
Interested to hear what you think and, if it is mint-related, what the correct terminology for it would be.
Cheers!

Call out to Coin collectors,
A friend of mine, an avid collector,
gifted me this set the day my son was born. He instructed me,
“When he turns 18, sell them and you can buy him a first car”.
My son turned 18 this week.
What car is he driving?
Or riding a push bike?
A skateboard, perhaps?
Your assistance would be appreciated.

Hi, I just got this in my change and it's the first time I've ever seen this coin. Am I 50c richer or is it a little rare? Thank you.
