EXCELLENT CONDITION SEE SCAN





  1. A VERY GOOD INVESTMENT
  2. A great opportunity to purchase this Rare COIN, which is rapidly increasing in value.
    Secure a great investment piece at a great price, these are rarely offered for sale now, 
    and will only continue to get harder to find and more valuable!!
  3. Like all UNC Coins produced by Royal Australia Mint / RAM, all these UNC Coins Possibly will have some production marks/scratches on them due to their production & handling processes.Circulation and press processes were used to mint some coins so will have some production marks/scratches.

    Photos of the Coins some times are generic & for illustrative purpose, as i have several coins of this type for sale, Each Coin has its own characteristics & production marks so the production marks of the coin which you will receive which may be differ from those shown on the Photos. 
  4. Please note - due to manufacturing process, handling and distribution, these coins are not 'Proof coins' and may have slight imperfections. 
  5. I use cotton gloves for handling all uncirculated coins.
