The bit in blue is a compass.

when I checked it out on Numista I found that the blue actually depicts a barometric scale

I was about to question that (about it being a compass)
I would have guessed humidity/temp/or atmospheric pressure myself
Very cool find - I may have to try to get this series (in better condition if possible)

However, I did find my first ever coloured $1 NCLT.


Well done. I've yet to find a coloured NCLT. The cat ones have sold for $25-45 carded so still a good find, even with the damage. It makes you wonder how it ended up in loose change.

Impressive.

Happy to see you have completed two of the three alphabet sets!

I hope the remaining 2019 coins find their way to you soon.
