My Day 4 piece is a New Zealand token from the 1860s.   Brown and Duthie, 1 Penny Token 1866 showing a fanciful portrait of Mt. Taranaki (Egmont). A great link to our very early history (Coin minted in Australia). Loving Halfcrowns. British and Commonwealth coins 1750 - 1950 and anything Kiwi.
If it's round, shiny and silvery I will love it.

I love to see the NZ & Aus tokens, they tend to be much scarcer to find than British issues, especially in such a nice condition as yours.

Early on Day 5 American time and late Day 5 here, I will add my 5th coin in place of Australia day. My favourite Australia coin!!   1934/35 Melbourne Centenary Florin - gEF and very scarce. Just 75,000 were minted and sold at a 50% mark up during the depression. As a result 21,000 were remelted and only 54,000 are left. The coin is the rarest florin issued by Australia and one of the most collectible. An important Australian coin for an important day in Australian history - Fair dinkum. 26th January 1788 was the day the flag was raised at Proclaimation Point and the European settlement of New South Wales began. Australia itself came into being as the Commonwealth we know today on January 1st 1901 at the Royal Exhibition Hall in Melbourne! Loving Halfcrowns. British and Commonwealth coins 1750 - 1950 and anything Kiwi.
If it's round, shiny and silvery I will love it.
