NumisEd Pillar of the Community United States 5191 Posts	Posted 10/09/2024 3:56 pm Nice coin, Hondo. But weird that the US Mint struck coins for Australia. Report this Post to the Staff
HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25406 Posts	Posted 10/09/2024 5:09 pm Thank you all! NumisEd, the US minted many coins for other governments during WWII. I posted one from Fiji not long ago. Here is an article that discusses a few of them (but only a few). https://coinweek.com/foreign-coins-...orld-war-ii/ Fiji 1 Florin 1943-S Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

NumisEd Pillar of the Community United States 5191 Posts	Posted 10/09/2024 7:07 pm The articles do not discuss why the US Mint struck the coins for Australia. And last time I checked, the Japanese didn't invade Australia and made it a puppet state. Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25406 Posts	Posted 10/09/2024 11:35 pm Some countries, such as Australia, experienced a great need for more coinage during WWII due to the number of foreign troops stationed there. Here is a press release from the US Treasury Department in 1945: Wartime Contribution to Foreign Coinage Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
