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. 

Good points ET. See my post below.

    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.  

    Scarcity AND demand LDC

    A bit like the AFL saying "limited seats available for the Sun's next match at HBS...get in fast".... but for some reason there's thousands left all going cheap!

    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!

    True but you'd kick yourself if you accidentally stuck it a parking meter.

    I've still got about 100 round 50 cent coins tucked away. I believe their silver content was circa 10 bucks last time I checked.

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I’m pretty sure that’s photoshopped.

    Doesn’t make much cents to me. 

    I don't think these coins will ever be worth much more than the $1 face value but some of the releases have sky rocketed.

    This ranks right up there with ‘Is more effective than the cloaca method’ as my favourite random sentence of the week on Demonland.

    Thanks HBT. It's certainly an award I like to get my hands on.

    • 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?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
