anyone know anything???

Not a lot really - they are worth at least their copper value and any coins minted after 1966 is just worth their face value / copper value. The earlier ones are perhaps just 20 Aus cents ish. That is the market value here appearently although I am not paying any attention to key dates etc. I just don't collect them

1955 half cent - called halfpenny - $2 Vf ; 38 Unc
1951 large cent - Called Penny - 3 different mints, Perth (dot after date), Melb or London (Pl to right of date) - only worth decent price in Unc - Perth one is 120 in Unc, Melb one id 60adn the London on is 48. The london ones are far superior strikes
1958 large cent - Called Penny (Perth and Melb) - both about same value 10 in EF and 45 in Unc
All the following are the new decimal coinage from 1966 and only have value as full red B-Uncs

1967 cent - Melbourne issue $7 in B-Unc
1978 cent - 2 to 3 bucks

4x1979 cent - 2 to 3
2x1974=2cent - 3 to 4 bucks
1979=2cent - 2 to 3
1982=2cent - 2 to 4 (unc 2, Choice 3, Gem 4 or specimen from Set 4)
1983=2cent - 2 to 4 (unc 2, Choice 3, Gem 4 or specimen from Set 4)
1984=2cent - 2 to 4 (unc 2, Choice 3, Gem 4 or specimen from Set 4)

The 1968 Two cent is the one to go after - in full red without toning or spots (which they are prevalent to) they are currently selling for 100 to 120 each.
1990 which is only available from sets is probably the next best at between 40 and 50 dollars value
