Glad you like them. There were three stamps in the set (Australian centenary)and are now hard to find.
The people at the PO thought I was off my rocker when I went to post the FDC but I thought it might be cool to have addressed to ones self.
They also had 20 $1.00 coins for sale for $30.00 because it was put in a paper roll which they just don't do any more.
Yes I invested in one and I don't collect coins.



These same coins should be out in general circulation soon.

I'd love to see what the coin looks like when it does go into circulation

I remember the days before plastic bags when all new coins, or even old coins collected from the bank was wrapped in paper this way.

And I will not be collecting coins other than the ones I have that are for my children. I collect one each for them since I came down under. Through it in a jar and let them fight it out when I kick it in

You may notice there is no post or zip code.
Post codes started in Ausralia in 1967.

Not yet Bandicoot

Stuff comming from Australia seems to take a while must come on a slow boat or take many detours.

I'll advise you as soon as they get here.
