Stars upon Thars

Show your star coins! Five or six sides OK! But they must be a central part of the design, not a border pattern. For that reason this thread is here, since I can only think of one US issue that qualifies (If there are more, show them).

Here is the starter example, a 1967 half pesawa from Ghana, star on reverse. The star is also a central emblem on the Ghanaian flag.

Those are cool coins that I've never seen before. Thanks for sharing.

 

These are the only coins that I can think of:

 

Gxseries,those are very nice Commie Russian silver 50 Kopecks & 1 Rouble coins.I think there are 2 subtypes for the 1922,both differing in the mintmaster's initials on the edge of the coins.

Brad,both the 1958 & 1965 issues,as well as the 1967-75 issues all depict a star on the reverses of the coins.

Thanks for showing those Moroccan and CCCP issues.

You'll know this one too of course. Nigeria under the British, 1/10 penny, 1908.

 

How about a 1933 peso from cuba.

I was waiting for a Cuba to pop up...I dont have one...

 

Picked it up at a flea market a few years back.

Brad,that 1/10 Penny was issued for Nigeria - British West Africa (1906-11).Nigeria did have stars on their coins in 1959-62.British West Africa did issue coins between 1912 & 1958 though.

How about a token ?

1 of the coolest star coins out there. it's from Turkey:

 

took me only 10 years to find/get this coin.:just-sign:

 

great star. what do these go for money wise ? :kewl:

Don't own any myself. I prefer stars as a secondary device (near the rim).

 

Around $20. Its from Soviet controlled Szechuan-Shensi Provinces krause # Y#511a
