So, the way I understand it; the country of issue is Rhodesia & Nyasaland.
If that's not the case, disregard the following question:
If that is the case, is it a 2 Shilling?

That's what I'm thinking. But I was thinking 1/2 Penny or Penny Wait and see I guess

Yes, it is a 2 shilling coin from Rhodesia and Nyasaland, which shows an eagle with a fish in its talons on the reverse. I think the other coins all show types of animals which are not native to North America.
That was question 14.

Quote: You must want this round over.  I was just responding to joecoin's question about denomination. I also thought that getting the country was hard enough that I would give a clue on denomination.... maybe I should have been more subtle. No, it is not a 1956.

Quote: Is it a 1955 2 Schilling from Rhodesia and Nyasaland? Hmm... let me think about this for a sec. WE HAVE A WINNER! What attracted me to this coin was the reverse, which looks to me like a few minutes after our Standing Liberty quarter's eagle spots his dinner in a river.

By the way, the winner is the illustrious joecoin. I can think of no one more deserving of the title. I was going to guess 1957, as ti holds a special place in my heart. but Spence beat me to it. Here's my Rhodesia/ Nyasaland specimen, two elephants fighting over a doughnut:
