For today's pick, I go down the value chain to a 1912 UK Farthing. (A quarter penny, 960 to the Sovereign)  |

1912 Half Penny from Australia. Sorry I only have pics of one side, but it is very humid here at the moment and I don't think it would be wise to remove the coins from the 2x2's just to take a pic of the other side.  Steve  |

1912(H) NICARAGUA 1 CORDOBA; 0.900 silver; mintage= 35 thousand:   This is a fairly scarce one year type. You'd be a lucky ducky to find one in a melt tub. It's about silver dollar size; I don't have the exact dimension because Krause doesn't include that and the coin is packed away. It was one of my first ebay purchases when returning to coin collecting after a forty year hiatus from the hobby.

Love that Sun & Mountains design! We need to get back to the 1850s before I can post my Honduran provisionals
Just checked this one in Sweeney's "A Numismatic History of the Birmingham Mint". Says Heaton's minted 35,000 but only 7,000 entered circulation.
Nice coin!

Normally I get mad when I see a bunch of the exact same USA coin in a row... but this year I have got one to post, so I'll join the identical nickel party!  |
