$1 2000 10c mule ($500), A $1 10c mule is a $1 coin that has been struck with a 10c “Head”. As the the 10c coin is smaller then the $1 coin, the 10c strike can be easily seen with the head fitting inside the rim of the coin where usually the the the $1 head would be flush with the rim of the coin. The reason it’s so rare is that usually coins that have been miss-struck are removed and destroyed by the mint, so very rarely do error coins get past the mint’s quality control. Additionally 2000 $1 mules have only been found in Perth, making them highly sort after in the eastern states.
It is estimated that only 6000 $1 mules exist. I found this on while noodling through coins from the bank.
$1 2000 10c mule ($400),
same as above except slightly worse for ware.
1966 20c “Wavy” 20c ($175)
Back in 1966, the Australian Government needed to outsource some of its coin minting to other mints due to the shear volume of 20c coins that need to be minted (58M) in the change over from the pound to the dollar. The “Wavy” 20c coin is variety of 20c coins that were minted in the London mint. The different tail (where the baseline of the 20c is wavy instead of flat in other 20c coins) of the coin occurred due to the use of a different die (what the mint uses to stamp the metal to make the coin) during a line of production at the London Mint.
No-one knows the exact mintage of the variety, but they are excepted as being very rare. I found mine while noodling through bank coins.
2012 $2 Poppy ($125)
The $2 poppy is the first circulated coin to be colored and was released alongside the non-colored $2 poppy to commemorate remembrance day.
Along with it being a rare $2 coin, the colored red poppy in its center makes it stand out as a beautiful piece of Australian coinage.
I won the coin along with it’s original RSL card (Released by RSL for fundraising) from facebook for only $20. Only 500 thousand of these coins were minted with the highest quality coin being worth over $2,000.
