Tonga 2 Pa'anga 1975 FAO. At 45 mm, it smirks at that puny Ike.

At 41mm, this 1970 Gambia 8 Shillings doesn't beat the 2 pa'anga but it does beat all of trig's coins.

Very nice, trig. If it's not up when mine arrives, I'll take care of that.

No they didn't. It's New Queensland Mint, which was located in California. These coins were minted without the knowledge of Prince Leonard, but he eventually accepted them as official issues, to save confusion amongst collectors.
Stamp sales and passport applications were handled through QLD though.

I just took some new pics and submitted them to Numista.
