Numismatics is the study and collection of coins and currency items. A collectable coin can be anything – from Ancient coins of thousands of years ago, to a freshly minted silver coin commemorating an important anniversary.

Definitely not -coins are for everyone!

There is much conjecture over the rarest Australian coin, however, it is often said to be the 1930 Penny. Perhaps 1500 examples exist of the mintage that circulated originally BUT only 4-5 examples are known in proof quality.

Many collector coins do increase in value but, of course, it is impossible to say for certain whether a coin will increase its worth. There are many factors involved, including collector demand, theme, age, and scarcity.

Generally, it is best to collect what you like. If you collect this way, you will always be happy!

Technically, yes. Any coins from any country have been approved as genuine legal tender.

However, usually the metal, the small mintage, the numismatic value, or even the age, make a coin worth much, much more than the currency value assigned to it.

Without seeing your coin, it is impossible to provide accurate information. Thus, we recommend contacting a reputable dealer such as us to discuss your coin and your options.

Australia’s first ever local coinage were the Holey Dollars and Dumps. Created in an effort to keep currency in the colony in 1813, these two coins were created by punching the centre out of a Spanish Silver dollar. The ring-shaped outer was declared to be worth 5 Shillings and the centre (the dump) decreed as 15 pence. Legal Tender status was removed from these coins in 1829 and many of them were subsequently melted down for the silver content. Today, existing examples of these coins are quite rare and command very high prices.

Circulating coins are struck in very high volumes and as quickly as possible. These are the coins that you find in your change every day. The term “Uncirculated” is used to describe a perfect, untouched, Mint-State version of a circulating coin. They are literally uncirculated. Additionally, coins struck specifically for collectors to a slightly better quality than circulation issues are also declared to be in Uncirculated condition.

Traditionally, like printing proofs, Proof coins were struck to examine the success or failure of a design before executing the larger minting run. In modern times, the term Proof refers to a higher quality minting process that creates collector coins of a special high quality.
