Hey Everyone!
I thought I'd open this space up to talk all things coins!
I've noticed that we have a few interested coin collectors.
@Mustang67 @Harmonium @Shaz51 @Snowie Feel free to tag anyone.
I'm a bit gutted that I missed out on the Bluey coin collection. I was waiting eagerly for it 😞

@tyme I think most of them are just greedy.
You would think that Ebay shouldn't allow this since it is price gouging.

Love it @Mustang67
Also, I guess with Ebay, it's each to their own. Everyone is trying to make a dollar these days.

I thought I would share a couple of my latest orders.
I like collecting the PNC's of programs that my daughter and I watched when she was growing up. As it takes me back to a simpler time when I was happy. They hold some good memories.

@PeppyPatti was it you that said you didn't know we had a one dollar note? As I have a one and two dollar note that I can show you, if it was.
And for those interested in Butterflies @TAB, this is a Monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus), also commonly known in Australia as the Wanderer. I have never heard the Monarch butterfly called the Wanderer before. Has anyone?

@Mustang67 waiting for the photos, but yes I love butterflies 🥰.
I just looked at the mint website - they have a 6 week delay in posting orders currently 😮. But i guess the good thing is that an order can be secured so it would eventually arrive 😊. I've been told the tours of the mint are good, but i've never been.

@AlwaysMyself I have been to the Royal Australian Mint, but I didn't go on a tour. I just walked around and looked at the museum that gave a great history regarding how money became to be. There were spots where you could watch the coins being minted etc. And you could press your own coin. But the mint has had a big upgrade since I have been, so it would be so much better now.
Once I can walk again, I really want to go to the Perth mint and do a tour. I know they go into the gold and silver side of things in their tour as well. I find it all very interesting.

..monarch was just what came to mind @Mustang67 re butterfly.
isnt Tuvalu underwater now? re coin ?
Tuvalu, a low-lying Pacific nation of 11,000+ people, is exceptionally vulnerable to climate change, facing existential threats from sea-level rise, coastal erosion, and saltwater intrusion. With land mostly just 2 meters above sea level, up to 95% of its main capital could be flooded by 2100
@PeppiPatty would have used $1 and $2 notes , not much younger than me @Mustang67 she doesnt recall them maybe.

@TAB I didn't know that about Tuvalu. I did see something a little while ago about some islands that wouldn't exist in years to come, with the way things were going to do with climate change.
