I have been wondering the significance of finding CoA era coins relative to the occupation date of a site and have a question to those that are lucky enought to remember the sixtys.

Were the 'Commonwealth of Australia' copper coins still in circulation until 1965 or were they phased out by the banks upon royal succession or the release of the Roo series in 1953?

We're the 100% silver coins phased out by the banks or collectors or did they circulate freely until 1965?
