Rolls Rolls Rolls. We’ve just listed up a couple of hundred new Royal Australian Mint rolls in the Coin Rolls Category!

It’s been over a 3 month wait but we’ve had some new coins come back from PCGS this week. Keep an eye on the newly listed stock to see what’s new and exciting. We’ve also had some price reductions on some pre-decimal proofs so if you’ve had your eye on something now is the time to buy.

We’ve just listed up a bunch of pre-decimal Queen Elizabeth II proof coins. Many of these with low mintages are worth squirrelling away for the future, all are PCGS graded. Our camera rig is currently down after we blew a globe and have to wait on a special order so we’ve added links to the PCGS images where available. If anyone would like an image we can take photos they just won’t be up to our usual standard until the rig is fixed later next week. Drop us a message or make an offer on the coin you are interested in.

Also new in is the 1937 crown, 1938 crown and 1939 florin.

We’ve just sent off another submission to PCGS which should turnaround in time for Christmas. It includes a number of quality lustrous pre-decimal coins along with odd high grade world coin and a dash of Aussie decimals. We’ll eagerly await the grades on these coins.

Also over the last few months we’ve added quite a few error coins to the website. This is a passion of ours and bringing quality coins to our buyers is what we get enjoyment from.

Take a look at the PCGS graded decimal coins category with many new coins added and more to be added over the next week. From 1966 to 1983 mint set coins were housed in pvc wallets which have proved over time to destroy the surface of the coin. The degradation of the pvc often leaves a sticky acidic residue on the surface of the coin which damages the coins irrepairably. Now you’d think that post 1983 the coins in blister pack mint sets would be of higher quality but we were surprised how difficult it has been to achieve the top PCGS grades from mint sets. Buy your coins slabbed by PCGS, they will not slab a damaged coin or ones with this pvc damage or pvc residue.

View our quality images first and make up your own mind which coin suits your collection, remember the higher the MS grade (up to MS70*), the better the coin -Australian grading doesn’t always reflect this.

*check the PCGS population report, often there have been very few if not any coins graded at the highest grades.

We’ve just added a number of new high grade world coins to the website along with an upgrade of the World Coins category to make browsing them easier. Stay tuned for more PCGS graded decimals.

Welcome Summer 2011 and our submissions have been returned from PCGS in time for the festive period. As expected the New Zealand coins graded well, we expected this as Royal Mint coins often grade higher than local Aussie made coins. There’s keen interest from collectors for us to continue slabbing some decimal issues so some lovely examples have returned in high grade with the red designation. Also slabbing well were some ever popular QEII proofs from 1963. We are in the process of listing up more pre-decimals so keep an eye on the newly listed category.

On a personal note we sent back for a second time some Aussie Perth copper from our own collections which had previously been rejected as “questionable colour”, PCGS hasn’t always recognised some of the stunning colours possible on Perth pre-decimal copper. These returned slabbed MS64RB so we’re pretty happy that PCGS have come around recognising this.
