1930 Penny

The 1930 penny is the undisputed crown jewel of Australia’s collectable coins, revered by collectors, investors, and non-collector alike. Struck in extremely limited numbers (as a test or by mistake, depending on who you ask), it remains one of the most fiercely pursued pieces in Australian coinage. The present example, acquired from a western Sydney source, ranks amongst the finer specimens to surface in recent years. It is even brown, with clean surfaces, has part centre diamond, and six clear pearls; diagnostic weakness on the “N” of “ONE” is present. For the collector seeking an original, problem-free example of Australia’s most sought-after coin, this is a standout opportunity.
