I'm mad. I didn't know about this until now. How could they make this limited edition?

[–] RegalPotoo@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You are going to be even more mad to learn that they were basically impossible to get for a while cos someone stole a bunch of them

As a father with a toddler... Totally a justified theft.

My son just called BS on the picture. Is there a reliable place to fact check this?

I'm not googling today, I'm pissed with my life. Yep I'll be fine tomorrow, just now I'm not, thx for caring, moving on.

It's just a limited edition coin we make a bunch of different ones, but in low quantities

Doesn’t this cause a lot of confusion on whether it’s counterfeit money or not?

[–] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Canada does the same and AFAIK it's never really been an issue

The US also makes tons of limited edition collectible quarters and dollar coins. Buying them costs way more than face value so they never end up in circulation. Not even sure if they actually are legal tender.

It's real. You could get them from the Australian Post.

Hope you feel better, dude! No idea what's making you feel bad, but life is pretty shitty right now, it's understandable to feel like garbage.

Predictably better today, had to set some limits on an unhealthy behavior (not mine) that has been going on for months. Thx for caring.

So do I walk in any post office and ask for it? Is that common currency or those gold plated stuff?

[–] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 1 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately you can't get them anymore. You gotta get them from eBay or something. They were collectable coins from what I read. I'm actually in the US, but I woulda bought a set and had them shipped here if they were still selling them.

[–] Galapagon@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

I just got a set on eBay for ~15 usd
