After finding out that the 1950 & 51 penny and the 52 sixpence circulated in colonies I also would like to know what others were shipped out I know of... 1950/51 pennies (Caribbean) 1952 sixpence Threehalfpence (west indies & others) Quarter farthing (ceylon) Third farthing (Malta) 4d before official coinage for guiana was released some were sent to replace the 1/4 guilder the 1888 example was specifically for guiana. West Indies anchor dollar also circulated in Mauritius. Any others ?
You have the majority I think, but a couple of other ones to consider: Threepences for some dates were issued in the colonies only, including 1834 to 1844, 1847, 1848 and 1852. The Half farthing of 1837 was for Ceylon only. Also of note is the 1827 penny - almost the entire mintage was sent to Australia but was lost in a wreck on the way, which is why it is so scarce. Paddy
Ah yes I forgot about the half farthing, I heard that limited amounts were sent to the colonies each year ? It's confising since most of these countries had some form Of standard currency anyway ! Ha I love collecting the empire
