I need to be educated.
I collect ancients and World coins - that is my excuse, anyway. I haven't specialised in Australian coins for nearly 30 years.
Renniks indicates that all 1920 Pennies were struck in either Sydney or Melbourne. Some have an 'S' above the scroll, some have an 'M' under the scroll, and a few have no mint mark at all.
1a) Is it correct that the working dies were manufactured in either India (presumably Bombay) or London?
1b) Were any dies for 1920 pennies made in Australia?
2a) How are the London and Indian dies identified from each other?
2b) How are Australian made dies for 1920 - 1936 identified?
I presume that the master dies for 1911 - 1936 Pennies were prepared in London.
