Which coins to keep or are of value

[mixo]

Hi guys,

Doing some research on what coins are of value(any coin) so when i did them up i don't spend them or if pre decimal dont sell them by the kilo.

I looked on here but the info is all over the place.

Has someone go the info in a spreadsheet or on a webpage that has ONLY the rare and special ones(i.e mistake or limited run).

It would be handy guide to have with me when hunting for coins.

many thanks

Google it

Google is definitely your friend when it comes to checking value on coins.I usually just google any coins that I detect to see if they are rare or of any significant value.It is quite fun to come home after a detect and research the coins you have found.This site is the first to pop up when googling Australian coins.

yes guys i can google it and I have seen videos on which ones too look for.

I was hoping someone already has done the research and has a simple guide on which coins to look out for.

Looks like I will have to make my own...

was wanting to take something with me especially now I will be on holidays and wont be on the web as much.

That all coin site is huge.

Just means the misses not going to be happy with me siting in front of the computer for hours looking up what "hot" coin I should keep.Especially before xmas!

I know about the 1966 wave 20 cent coin, and some double headed 5 cent coin...

Mixo,there are countless coins that are worth keeping,(error coins,rare coins ,low mintage)I just don't know of any super list that lists all of them.The link I put up for example shows the 1914 shilling.If you look at the values of it,even in just very good condition it is worth $10,I would class that as a coin to keep.Check out the uncirculated grade $1400.Put it on your list of coins to keep.

Yes mixo the list would be too long but one to add the 1946 penny

Yes I do like this a lot from the quick look i had.

All i'm going to do is a quick list of coins that are of interest. Keep those aside till i can check in detail.All spendables will be given to kids to spend on anything they want!

Everything else(1 & 2 cent/ pennies) I assume will be turned into copper sold by the kilo?

Do you guys keep all your coins?

Also I dont think I will find anything that is mint under the ground or beach? I am Assuming the beach kills the value of coins?

sure do all coins go into the collection and 1 2 dollars go into a bucket last count was around 2250 dollars

 

[mixo]

Wow 2k in cash. 2 dollar coins disappear in my household. They onto them like seagulls on a hot chip.

 

[savage bitter]

people drop coins every where they go you can find some good spots and you can do real well both pre dec and current
