Coin collectors camping out at the Mint with some creature comforts

Manny Cachia and Casey Skelton are camping outside the Mint to purchase a new-release coloured poppy coin.
They have brought various comfort items, including an air fryer and electric blanket, to endure the overnight cold of 2 degrees.
They previously queued for red poppy coin releases in 2012 and 2022, demonstrating their commitment to coin collecting.
Another collector from Brisbane joined them but lacked the same level of preparation as Manny and Casey.
