[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 26521696, member: 4626"]Picked up one of these (not this one specifically, mine is a loose 1971 proof I got for 50c US, but this is a better picture of one than I could take:) [URL]https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/bahamas-15-cents-km-5-1966-1970-cuid-1041894-duid-1282425[/URL] Been grabbing just about any square-shaped coin I see lately and couldn't pass this one up. This just seems a really weird denomination; I can't think of any reason anyone would need to make a coin worth 15/100 of something. Not sure what the thinking was there. I looked, the US at one time did have a 15c fractional note, but other than that and the 15c piece from the Bahamas, haven't found another country feel a need to make a 15/100 coin or banknote. Really odd denomination IMO. (Edit: OK also found a State of South Carolina 15 cent note. If anyone is trying to finish the 15 cent type set lol.)[/QUOTE]
