- Even errors are keepers - Australian $2 coins Book 1, Ep 79
I find coins & I collect coins.
Australia has some of the best looking coins on the planet.
Our standard coins are classics of animal depictions.
Our commemoratives are World class and world leading.
Join me as I noodle through Australian $2 coins looking for our countries coloured commemorative coins, rare coins and coins that can be worth more than face value.
This is an ongoing series of coin hunting where I sort through $2 coins looking for all the commemorative coins issued for circulation since the introduction of the $2 coin in 1988.
Watch and follow me as I attempt to complete a full set.

Hi Phil, Couple of nice coins in that noodle and you can take as long as you like i chill out with a few ales while you are noodling it's very good for keeping up my fluids as my doctor advised. keep up the GREAT work you put into your site Champ.
Thanks for the great Compliment Stephen.
Congratz on winning Send2gerogie's giveaway!!
i just watch the draw video.
I scored a 1985 50c coin today! 1 million minted
Very Nice.
all mine are in pretty poor condition.
I purchased some real bargains from coin fairs in the UK. I’m not an ebay fan - too many bad experiences 😡. Great to hear you properly through the hunt. 😎🍀💜
Thanks TenBob.
There really aren't that many coin fairs near me.
Only two or three per month
A big one once a year
I still need A in commonwealth ones and I don't think I seen anyone find cuds in $2 lol niceee Phil👍👍👍👍
Thanks Rez,
The U is alluding me too.
CUD's are tough on the $2's
The biggest I've seen is on the Gold Poppy.
funny that I have triples of both A and U ones but not a single S@@PhilFindsCollects
Very nice
Thanks
Scored a number of 50c from a friend from NSW firmly QLD was happy to get 2 mambo, 1 Atlants,, 1 Indigous languages, 1 NSW 2001, 1Rams head & 3 change overs.
That's a nice friend you have there.
All Great coins.
Thumbs up! 😃👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Enjoyed the hunt and commentary Phil, great that you picked up the "S" coin for the book and a couple of nice rim cuds, couldn't get any 50c coins yesterday so I grabbed 5 rolls of 20c coins for a nice 2016 changeover and a Northfolk Island Fed coin, nothing else outstanding in the $1 & $2 coins except for 2 x 2022 $2 Aboriginal Elder coins, my first, as always keep up the great work with your channel, your format works well for me. Cheers Peter J 🤗👏👍 ps. just picked up the 2022 NSW State coin and a 2022 Kookaburra from Bullion Now, then I couldn't help myself and purchased the first coin in the series, the 2021 Australia Coat of Arms on eBay, paid a premium, but I had to have it and just now 5 older PNC's, this months budget has well and truly been blown to the "shizenhousen". 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks Peter,
You Make me Laugh
if you have a budget that you are working to then you are a better man than I.
I just keep spending under the radar until the Missus is looking at the Statement and says "who is max stern?"🤣🤣🤣
@@PhilFindsCollects Very funny Phil, I haven't bought anything from Max for a while, I don't really have a budget, but I have spent a lot lately, just depends on what's out there at the right price. 😜🤑😂
20:16 2020 Commonwealth games? Also I just realised that the A U S $2 coins have a different design on the paint
That's right Tyler.
Each coins has a different design.
I went through that when I showed the sets.
@@PhilFindsCollects you did wow I'm super slow 🐌
I look for the A, U, S with correct alignment of the colours. Look on the Web site for them to see how they are pictured. They go in my folder..and others very close go in capsules in a drawer.
That's Nice.
I only have a very few that have correct alignment.
they are hard to find in good nick
WTH WANTS U TO BE QUICK I rather u go slow and tell us about the coins what u find and additional information IDC how many times I hear it its all LEARNING THE MORE U HEAR IT THE MORE IT SINKS IN KEEP UP THE WAY U DO VIDS ❤️😉👍
Noted Rez,
Its hard to please everyone.
and any way i just do what feels right.
@@PhilFindsCollects EXACTLY 💯
Went to a coin fair on Saturday bought a couple of 1dollar coins on cards.
NIce William.
In what way were they special?
Certain years or Mint marks?
2011 rams head, c stamped eureka stockade,c stamped 2003 Korean war, all for 20dollars.
@@williamkerr6371 Excellent Pick ups William.
Not sure I have all of the 2011 Rams head's.
Thanks for the information i didn't know about the other coins.
HI Phil i got my $2 and 50c coin books today from VST. i hope they give you a discount code mate ill buy more.
I'm glad Andy
LOL no sponsors for me.
They wouldn't know me from Adam.
hey bud perfect just made a coffee, i have to wait till next week for a hunt
Thanks,
But that's if you Only watch the $2 hunts
I do $1 and 50c each week as well.
@@PhilFindsCollects oh na i watch all lol im talking about myself getting to do a hunt
scored a few bags of Socceroo's the other day
@@vandiemenadventures Very Nice my friend.
I believe that it is really hard to get them in that form.
Everyone I have talked to about them have said the Staff have been very strict on the release.
@@PhilFindsCollects i was luck enough a friend knew i collected coins and grabbed them for me i only needed one lol i wonder what the mintage might be seems kinda low
@@PhilFindsCollects what do you think i should do with them
I would store coins out of basic interest but since Queen Elizabeth II death it has spark an interest in coins, now I'm very interested. I looked at some coins I put aside 7 years ago & there was a 2012 Red Poppy $2 coin but the paint was very worn off. I do remember seeing a full Red Poppy & 2013 $2 Queen purple coin but it's in my old cupboard and I cannot find it 🤦♀️ now coin hunting is my hobby.
Wow Tara,
Welcome Back to the hobby,
That's an amazing story about your Red Poppy,
I hope you find your red poppy & Coronation Purple coin.
Good Luck
@@PhilFindsCollects Hi Phil Thanks 😊 I'm enjoying your informative videos they're really helping a novice like me. 👍
These coins are worth more than face value no matter what their condition is lol
To the right people, Yes.
In your book you have saved a face off I think in the 1990 slot so what's the verdict of the face off $2 coins ?
Hi Stephen,
I'm unsure of the Term "face off" in relation to the $2 denomination.
Can you explain a bit more and i can come back to you on it.
@@PhilFindsCollects I'm not shore why someone would do this to coins ,I did see a 2009 face off on eBay with a ridicules price on it selling as a rare error coin that might explain why this would be happening, I found a 1995 with missing face along side with a 1995 fake counterfeit $2 coin
Thank you for the ebay advice, next time i go i will be very prepared =) .
The day you find a red poppy will be a great day, would you consider starting new book when collect the remaning $2 coins?
Thanks RLJT,
Happy to be able to help with some advice.
I will start a new book if i find a Red Poppy OR I get enough money in the Red Poppy Fund to buy one for the Collection.
I have had a New RAM $2 folder ready for a while to start again once i finish the current book.
Have you found any of those Socceroo coins?
Ah sadly I haven't found any in the hunts yet.
I've had to organise a swap with someone to get a few for my collection.
I have no idea if they will even turn up in hunts anytime soon.
@@PhilFindsCollects I have 10 those I could swapped u something lol got mine from BWS no wollys round me has any yet I'm getting the AUS from my wollys just now like I said just need A 😁
@@reznae2718 I have quite a few of the A's
I could swap for Socceroo's but i do have some already.
Hi I got a $1 coin with just Australia 2000 on the back no queen Lizzie writing would it be worth much please phil
Hi Shelly,
I'm really struggling to identify that coin.
I'm not aware of any $1 coins without the Queen on at least one side.
I would need to see a picture of both side to confirm it.
I have a fifty cent coin
With athletes around the coin
Nice one Marty, Sounds like a 2005
@@PhilFindsCollects I s it worth any thing
@@martyparker1225 Sadly, Only 50cents Marty
I have a coins
Excellent !
Very nice coins but that book is made of PVC and that will destroy your coins PVC has a nasty chemical which leachers out and coats your coins in a sticky residue which will corrode your coins destroying them completely 😱 please don't put a red poppy in that folder that would a absolute tragedy and take your coins out of that thing please 🙏 you have nice collection there please don't continue to destroy your coins as you collect them 😢
Thanks Matthew.
I only use these books during the periods of the hunt.
When i finished this book I put all of the Coins into capsules.
My latest $2 book is one from the RAM and again i will transfer the coins into more storage friendly holders when i am done.
Thank you for your concern and your comment.
