Pirate Guide to Collecting Australian Coins Paperback & Digital eBook 2024-2025 Edition

Includes Free Postage with tracking anywhere in Australia!

It’s easy and affordable to start a collection with the interesting coins that we find in our change, and as a result it’s something we can all relate to. That’s why this book is focused on the coins in circulation – it’s where most people begin.

Whether you’re a new or seasoned collector, this book has information and images to help your collection. If you’re just getting started with coin collecting, this book will help you to confirm which coins are available and some of the subtle details to look for that can turn coin collecting into a treasure hunt.

The Pirate Guide lists all Australian decimal coins currently in circulation (from 1966 to the end of 2024). This includes the coloured $2 coins released by Woolworths, Anaconda and Australia Post.

There are high quality images of every coin, so you can see exactly what to look for, plus mintages so you know which coins are rarest.

This set includes:

1. The Paperback Pirate Guide to Collecting Australian Coins: 2024/2025 Edition (RRP $66.00)
2. The Digital Pirate Guide to Collecting Australian Coins (RRP $47.00)

Reviews

I've learnt so much from you, my husband has previously bought 2 of your books for me as gifts, everything you promote is very user friendly. 😊

Being new to collecting, it was suggested to me. So now my copy is highlighted, has small notations written and is starting to already appear over used. It’s my run to guide. I am beyond happy to have had it recommended to me. Brilliant is an understatement, so perfect for newbies.

This book is amazing! I haven't found anything like this. It makes it really easy to figure out what coins to look for.
