David Graham Pillar of the Community Australia 1575 Posts	Posted 10/20/2020 10:17 pm https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces240647.html I can't belive this is a circulating coin, rather a mistake on Numista. And if so, I can't believe the paint would last a second. Report this Post to the Staff

Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5384 Posts	Posted 10/20/2020 10:42 pm Those were definitely Non Circulating, so whoever listed it with (or suppled the info to) Numista got it wrong. A bit further down on the page they've got it right. "Comments This NCLT coin was initially released by the RAM as part of a limited edition metal box set of 60 Years of Supercars 50 cent coins." life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved Report this Post to the Staff

atticguy Pillar of the Community United States 1348 Posts	Posted 10/20/2020 10:50 pm I'm thinking the item is listed correctly, it's just that the coins are NOT CIRCULATED, but are stamped/minted at the RAM in 'circulated' style (not in a 'proof' style). Basically, they came out as BU's. I don't have a single clue how they actually make coins in Australia, but this is my guess. Report this Post to the Staff

Canada has issued quite a few painted coins which really did circulate, and the paint (or coating) did last a surprising length of time in circulation. Report this Post to the Staff
brismike New Member Australia 16 Posts	Posted 10/21/2020 11:56 pm Hi Guys - I can answer what happened here. I am the referee for Australian coins on Numista and I added all of these Supercars 50cent coloured coins the other day. It was just a simple error on my part in selecting the wrong checkbox when submitting that coin. It has been fixed now and all is good. The coin is definitely Non-Circulating. One of the members on here pointed it out to me. Cheers Mike Report this Post to the Staff
