    I was going through coin photos today, something I havent done in a while, and I came across what I believe to be one of the nicest coin designs when it comes to circulation coinage. The British North Borneo 1 Cent. Thought I would post it.

    I like the design too. Here is a 2 1/2 cent coin, you do not see that denomination too often.
