How Far Back Can We Go? Seventh Edition! Ended At 1380 Waiting On 1379

Great we can all give ourselves ranks? I am sure I would fall somewhere around the "Captain" level - high but not at the top.

Some more British niceties - a pair of Threepences


Brass 3d - over 100 million minted in 1943! Free factoid for you, the edges of 1942 - 1946 are smoothed due to war time work portioning. Coins to 1941 and after 1946/47 have sharper corners!


And a silver threepence. Up to 1941 both coins coexisted, but 1942 - 45 they were minted for overseas only. Just 1 million of these were minted. This one is quite scarce.


East African 10 cents, these coins got heavy wear as you can see!

New Zealand for 1942 was a tough year, the peak of the war and in the early part the threat of Japanese incursions into our borders. Coins minted were quite low. Hence my examples this year are not as nice.


Decent Halfcrown and Florin


2 varieties this year, a broken back shilling and a threepence with one diamond by the date (Usually two). Both of my examples are very worn.


Very average penny and halfpence, with worn 6d - a hard coin to upgrade!


My only upgrade, a 1 Diamond 3d up to Fine from VG.

Both of these coins are scarce.
