How Far Back Can We Go? Sixth Edition! Ended At 1380 Waiting On 1379

Thanks erafjel!

I only have 2 1960 coins worth showing (I have shown enough Kiwi ones for now and my Aussie and GB ones are a bot worn).

My second coin is another Jersey 1/12 shilling (Penny) coin





It celebrates the Restoration of Charles II in 1660 and the fact Philip Carteret of Jersey announced his complete loyalty to him and NOT Louis XIV of France.

The channel Islands had been back and forth between France and England since Norman days - but had been nominally English since the 1200s. The French tried to invade as late as 1748 and even now there are disputes between French and English fishermen over some islands closer to France.

This coin is a decent high EF grade.

You will find my 1950s coins are more worn and there are less of them, but some years like 1953 you will see a few more.

1960 Lincoln Penny

Here's a 1960-D Washington quarter

Sorry about that image - another 1959 coin





The 6d's big brother, a one shilling of 1959. Between 1954 and 1960 this was the highest value coin issued in New Zealand.

Example is VF and worn from circulation. You can see soem of the grass fronds on the warrior's skirt are flat. Compare this to my gleaming 1963 coin!

1959 Netherlands.
2 1/2 Gulden.
