  OPALPLUS HAS BEEN PURCHASER OF PERTH MINT COINS SINCE EARLY 1980s

IN AUGUST 2007 WE WERE APPROVED AS AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR PERTH MINT AUSTRALIA .

 

AUSTRALIA POST 200 YEARS AT OFFICIAL LIST PRICE

 

Issued by Australia Post, this commemorative Stamp and Coin Cover celebrates the beginning of postal services in Australia with the historic appointment of Isaac Nichols as first Postmaster of New South Wales in 1809.

 

Perth Mint Coloured Coin

 

The Stamp and Coin Cover incorporates a Perth Mint base metal coin featuring a coloured representation of Isaac Nichols, a former convict whose diligence and sobriety recommended him for the position of Australia’s first Postmaster.

 

Prior to his appointment, news hungry residents of Sydney Town had rushed to greet incoming ships, where, in the chaotic scramble for letters and parcels, items were either lost or damaged, while unscrupulous people took advantage of the mayhem to obtain mail fraudulently.

 

Nichols collected correspondence and packages from vessels in Sydney Cove, advertising the names of recipients who could collect their mail from his home - Australia’s first Post Office – situated near the waterfront in Lower George Street.

 

Also featured on the coin’s reverse is the border inscription 200 YEARS OF POSTAL SERVICES IN AUSTRALIA and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark.

 

Australian Legal Tender

 

Issued as legal tender under the Australian Currency Act 1965 , the coin portrays the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the 2009 year-date on the obverse.

 

Illustrated Envelope and Stamp

 

The coin is housed in a superbly illustrated envelope featuring an Australia Post 55c stamp.

 

Anniversary Postmark

 

The commemorative stamp is postmarked with the anniversary date 25 March 2009

Why are users outbidding themselves?

When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.

When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.

Audit

The Coin Sheriff program allows our members to request an audit on any product, which is completed by an independent Numismatic Specialist who assesses the accuracy of the item description and pictures.
