Fair dinkum, good group and a nice selection mostly VF.

Just my 1943!

As this shot shows, collecting all varieties of the 1942/44 Australian coins is hard work!

I read somewhere that American coins were minted in .900 rather .925 silver though, or am I barking up the wrong tree. They did this for Fiji too, and this was a boost as Fijian coins were typically only .500 silver at the time!
