The coin is in good condition and was given to me by my dad. The issue I have is the center hole was struck incorretly by the then mint and was wondering if this could be worth anything more that what collectors pay for old Rhodesian coins. If some body is interested I can email a picture of the coin. thanks for your help.   10-10-2009, 10:41 PM   #2 (permalink) hrhomer Member     Join Date: May 2009 Location: The Outer Sunset, SF, CA Posts: 200 My Mood: Try the world coin forum. But damn, I'd like to see a picture - I've never seen a Rhodesian coin!

Can you elaborate on "the center hole was struck incorretly by the then mint"? Is it off-center? Is it not circular? A picture would help but is not absolutely vital.   10-18-2009, 03:26 PM   #4 (permalink) hdoolabh Junior Member   Join Date: Oct 2009 Location: Little Rock Arkansas Posts: 6 Check out ebay as there are various coins from Rhodesia and just about every other part of the world for sale here.   10-18-2009, 03:27 PM   #5 (permalink) hdoolabh Junior Member   Join Date: Oct 2009 Location: Little Rock Arkansas Posts: 6 Guys i will have a picture taken of this odd penny this wekend and will post it early next week.   10-20-2009, 11:53 AM   #6 (permalink) hdoolabh Junior Member   Join Date: Oct 2009 Location: Little Rock Arkansas Posts: 6 Is This Rhodesian penny worth anything?
