Welcome to 1957 the year of Buddy Holly, Jailhouse Rock and Great coins!   1957 Fijian Shilling - similar to Numis Rob's but a year older. |

Next coin - New Zealand's smallest, a baby 3d - the same size as a Half Dime  I swear photos will get better as we hit the 40s. These fiddly little coins were lost pretty easily - by 1957 all it would buy would be an ice block or a small chocolate bar. |

Jersey went with a round brass 3d (¼ shilling)   Sorry about quality - images hard work - take them, download them, then have to compress them as the file is like 3mb and all. Some high quality shots are coming when we hit 1955. |
