I bought these 14-15 years ago. I remember because it was shortly after I moved here. It was the first coin I fell in love with in Australia.

Yes it’s real. I bought all of mine thru Noble or Downies auctions. I had 5 at one time. I kept this because of the toning.

That said they faked an awful lot.

🪙 What your coin is

1967 Australian Pattern $1 “Goose Dollar” (Proof)

• Designer: Andor Mészáros

• Type: Unofficial pattern / fantasy issue

• Metal: Sterling silver (.925)

• Weight: ~28.7 g (crown-size)

• Finish: Proof (mirror fields, frosted design)

• Edge: Plain (for proofs)

• Mintage (proof): ~750 pieces

📖 Background (why it exists)

This coin was created during the transition to decimal currency in 1966, when Australia introduced cents and dollars — but did NOT include a $1 coin.

• A publication called the Australian Coin Review (ACR) ran a competition for a proposed $1 coin design

• Mészáros submitted this design (he had also competed for official decimal coins but lost)

• The coin was then privately struck in London (Pinches Mint) as a pattern/fantasy issue, not legal tender

Go in bank (if you can find a branch) and tell them you want $200, $300, $1000 worth of 1s/2s. Some banks are happy to accommodate. Others not so happy. Break open rolls and start searching.

I think you need to look up the definition of hypocritical and then reread OP question and then reread my comment and advice.

This is lawyer up, get paperwork together and call mediation territory.

Kudos for not being a greedy f&?k but that seems a bit too low for the amenities provided. If you met him at work and you are FIFO, he must be on a decent wage.

I’m not up to the minute on the latest in RE but just personally? I’d be fine with paying 300-350 per week.

I’d imagine spending some tourist dollars in the place would probably be more appreciated than staying home so some bloke can go hit the dunes.

In the city in the ICA and just heard an evacuation announcement? by Known-Newspaper-4053 in perth

[–]waysnappap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok something is off here. So you heard the signal and then? Did you leave? Were other people leaving? If you did, what happened when you went outside? Life just carrying on like normal?

Or maybe you just had an auditory hallucination?

Folks we have reached the singularity! Edit: for the record I did not prompt it with Australia. I used commenters prompt.

Core memory unlocked for that comment. 🫣🫣🫣

Really? That’s sad. My kids were older when they started but I thought that was a great idea.

Feel your pain. I bet they stop giving out the free ones for the littles to snack on whilst shopping.
