    Worth one dollar but they want $5. They do come in a little presentation pack.

    Given it has Queen Lizzy on the coin, maybe it’s now seen as an antique. Could explain the inflated rate.

    I’d reckon you could get a Suns $1 for 20c

    I’d say the Suns version is a very limited addition.

    It's not the coin value as the motive for purchase.

    Really some DLErs are off the mark. Historical objects and prices are not judged the same value of the purchase but a potential value or sentimental etc. which is different to different people. 

    Its so basic and critical to expect this novelty coin for a dollar really. If it was a dollar it wouldn't be worth buying!

    Went to the Perth Mint in Summer (Which I highly recommend by the way) and saw the million dollar coin that weighs a tonne and is currently worth around $50 million based on all the gold in it. Amazing stuff.

    Outstanding investment!  I gonna stock up now, ‘cos their value will increase exponentially in late September 2023, and beyond.

    Ironically, (if that were true) that would mean that in future, the relative scarcity of the GCS coins would make them worth more than the rest.

    Or they could go the way of the 1&2c coins and no longer be considered legal tender.

    Why isnt Barrassi or Smith on the flip side . We never learn.

    We’ve made the mistake of not putting their heads on a $1 coin before? I’m guessing because it’s legal tender and also not a decision made by the club.

    Perhaps you should find out rather than allude to the MFC missing an opportunity.

    There quite possibly have not been a choice on the Queen for Clubs in this promotion!!! 

    Perhaps you could ask why isn't it the King also?

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
