Officially they are worth $5 but the idea never really took off.

I found one a few years ago, the only one I've ever found, and that's since 1977 .

I've still got one in old tobacco tin somewhere in the shed, found it back in the mid 80's.

These are my brother in laws, a fella went to the servo he works at and bought $38 worth of fuel and paid with these....
At todays price that's $566 bullion value right there!

ten bucks a pop for them I have been collecting them since 1995 I have 75 of them how long did they stay in use before being pulled remember coin collecting value is higher than bullion price in this case

I think my collection of round 50's is over 80 now

 

[kleinman98]

Well! They beat my two.

A customer paid for their coffee at maccas with a silver 50 while I worked there a couple of years ago so I received it in change on my meal break!
