I have taken a fancy to these little buggers recently, from
Southern Rhodesia, Rhodesia & Nyasaland and Rhodesia.
Just added another 5 to my collection.

Not really new acquisitions I have had these for a while now.
These coins are from the 1970 Brit proof set and are the last of the pre decimal Brit coins.
They were on my desk so I thought I would take some images of them and share

Sweet looking coins Jim.

For a Proof set these are not that Exy either .

This is the first of the Canadian 2016 50c coins that I ordered a month or so ago.
This is the Specimen coin, I am still waiting for the business strike and the Silver Proof to arrive.

I Love the reverse on these , The obverse not so much.
