Im lucky enough to have one. Dad has 2 in his old coin collection and my friend's grandma has a whopping 75 round 50 cent pieces

My dad works in a small club in a country town. A couple of months ago a customer must've gone in and used some1966 fifties as regular change to buy a drink. Dad saw three in the till at the end of the night and swapped them out. I got two and a regular customer who was still on site was given one before he left. Little surprises do happen!!

That is amazing that people are still using them to pay for stuff, unknowingly understanding their true value. Thanks so much for sharing this story. Dan

Thanks for the show and tell mate. I enjoyed it and learnt a few things. 😊 My dad had a tin full of those when I was a kid. Our house had a break in and they were stolen and we never got them back.

My mother had over seven thousand of the roundies in her collection. She worked as a barmaid at the time and swapped them every time she saw one in the till.

Need some advice, recently bought 10 pieces and 1 standout due to the weight is just 13.04g. Should I be concerned?

That definitely sounds a bit strange. It should be 13.28 if you take it to a bullion dealer they will be able to check it for you. I use Bullion Now. Thanks Dan

These coins are amazing. Big sized, durable, good weight, and they make great silver sound when they clanged with one another. I have 12 of them, and I occasionally take them out to play around like a pirate with his stash. Can't do that with my pure 999 silver coins. Those pure silver coins will get scratched easily. 😂

Funny how things change. I remember growing up in Ausralia (70-80's) I collected all the variations of the "dodecagon" 50cents which are pretty much worthless and I only have 1 round silver one..

It's funny to think that 50cents was once worth the value of 15 dollars. Essentially, if you get where i'm coming from.
