The courage to change - Australian $2 coins Book 2, Ep 70

[@peterj8278]

G'day Phil, a quiet $2 hunt this time with just 2 coins, interesting commentary about the Bluey coins being issued through Australia Post, I scored 31 coloured $2 coins from my friendly bank teller last week, including Mosaic & Rosemary coins, I couldn't believe my luck, not sure how many rolls I would have to noodle to find that swag of coins. Cheers Peter J 🤣🤞👍

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Wow Peter Now that is a lot of luck from a great source. Just goes to show that if you are kind and straight forward , anyone can help you out who has access to coins.

[@garymcewan830]

Hi Phil, well very slim pickings in that hunt mate, just like my last hunt, ok mate next time cheers buddy 👍🏻 👌 👏

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Thanks Gary. It's so up and down, it's frustrating

[@ianmcquade3279]

Yup,got 2 Olympic Games $2 coins from Woolies. Not overly excited, but happy to have them. Keep truckn Phil 🇦🇺

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Thanks Ian. I haven't any yet, but I'm sure i will eventually.

[@lorrainedalton8753]

I did as well...

[@PhilFindsCollects]

@@lorrainedalton8753 Nice I have 3 now.

Thanks for sharing what you find Phil 🙂 That's a very nice 1988! 🙂 I did manage to get one of the 50 cent NADOC coin but just have to wait over a month or so to receive it.... 😞Don't understand the delay.. Sad I missed out on the Dolphin Silver Coin..😞

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Oh wow Linda! The wait is pretty confusing to me too Linda.

[@yoavstauber]

I think the wait is to stop people from putting coins on ebay at so much of a percentage mark up. Ram possibly waiting for the hype to die down before they release their representative retail price coins. That's my theory anyway.......

Nice to watch ❤❤

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Thanks Smartfiz. Much appreciated.

[@jeffholmes1362]

It’s getting hard to get coloured $2, but always nice to watch

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Thanks Jeff

[@send2georgie_S2G]

Looking forward to seeing you score the new 2024 Olympic coins Phil. Cheers and keep on noodling ✌🏻😊

[@PhilFindsCollects]

[@CoinCudsCollect]

Keep grinding Philly 🙏🏼😬💪🏼CCC

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Thanks CCC You too.

[@Alrik.]

Not much, but better than nothing! I always find it funny how the design on the "crown" (depicted on the changeover) is so on the nose 😂

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Oh No Alrik, Culturally so nice for us. Have you seen the video where i showed the original Crown that i bought?

[@Alrik.]

@@PhilFindsCollects I think depicting the old coins is great (and I loved your old coin!). I just meant it's funny that the coin called Crown depicts a crown 😅

[@PhilFindsCollects]

@@Alrik. AH, of course Yes, that does seem funny

[@markwegner6821]

Woollies have $2 Olympic games coins in change at the moment. As of 17 July 2024. (with King Charles)

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Thanks Mark. And you should be able to by them in sets at the Post Office.

[@wisey95]

A bit lean again. Better luck next time. I got some naidoc coins at the mint swap in Adelaide but have not found any in the wild.

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Nice Pick up Wisey. I don't know if the RAM will do any swaps in Melbourne soon. I will have to wait for them in circulation. It will be fine.

[@brettellis1837]

Got few of them.

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Nice Brett.

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Hi David, Yes, its been very tough.

[@CABL-TylerBaratta]

Where is the purple poppy that the mint was going to release? Did they scrap it or something? Or is it coming out in November? Also is all standard denominations with KCIII in circulation yet?

[@PhilFindsCollects]

Hi Tyler. I don't remember any Purple Poppy in the RAM Determinations. Where did you hear about that ? I Haven't heard about all the KCIII coins in circulation . Ive Only heard/seen the 2024 $2 and the 2023 $1. No clue yet on the others

[@CABL-TylerBaratta]

@@PhilFindsCollects I did hear about in the RAM determinations

[@PhilFindsCollects]

@@CABL-TylerBaratta Oh, Can you remeber when? or which one.
