Identifying A.muscaria

Found near a nature strip covered in grass. No trees or bark near the growing spot. Found many mushrooms around this spot that look to be all A.muscaria. I live in the suburbs and was picked near a park and side Walk. Was picked in Victoria.
Gills: Gills are white coloured, a spore print white.
Stem: Stem were quiet thick roughly 3-5 cm diameter and were white coloured. Stems had a soft fluffy texture once split in half. Were long and had a crown on the stems. However once picked the crowns would fall off or come loose.
Cap: Diameter could vary from the smallest of 5 cm all the way up to around 30cm or so. Caps are red convex on the small one and flattened, smooth and almost orange with the older ones. White warts are on the mushroom and looks to not be removable easily.
Spore print color: White.
Bruising: Non
Other information: Smells like a mushroom smell (think like a portabalo edible mushroom)

No concentric rings around base, wait for TI.

Lowbrow, you think this is something else? If you know of any mushroom that resembles amanita muscaria, I'd like to know 😂 I've been identifying this one since I was about four 😁

Im not a TI. There’s no concentric rings so to erre on the side of caution is always better.
All I’m saying is that he should wait for a TI.

Mate, it's by definition the worlds easiest mushroom to identify. No need to wait for anyone.

This is because the base has been cut off on all specimens. No other red Amanita mushroom grows to this size

It’s fly agaric. For gods sake.

The mushrooms are great. The mushrooms are fine. Give me them with lashings of wine.

Hey y'all,
Thanks for the feedback. I'm still new to this entire thing of collecting and identifying mushrooms.
Currently reading and observing all I can so I can make judgements without having to post to double check. But at this stage I was confused with another amanita with similar patterns except different coloured stem.
Regarding concentrating rings on the base. It had them originally but I cut them off due to it being too large to be cleaned and dried.
Thanks all for the concern.
