How about a theme shift to island nations, kingdoms, colonies, etc?

 

Good, I was about of double bird coins. I think this is from the old British Guyana colony, 1813 Essequebo & Demarary one stiver token. I just read part of the wikipedia story about this place and what confusion! It changed hands or flags so many times, Dutch, English, pirates, back and forth.

 

Falkland Islands 20p 2004. Continue Island States/nations/colonies etc

 

Solomon Islands 10 Dollar 1992. I was there in 1985 clearing away ammunition left from WW2. Strange to think that the remaining kit is nearly twice as old now!

 

St Helena Halfpenny 1821:

 

Love that St Helena half penny, I just acquired one a few months ago. Here is an odd one, 1994 Sealand half dollar. I think it is rather low mintage.

 

Malta 1964

 

Philippines - 50 Centimos, 1885

 

Puerto Rico - 10 Centavos, 1896
