Australian Sixpence (6d) type

Recommended Posts

The Sixpence (or Zac) was the only Australian pre decimal coin to have the same reverse in the entirety of its production life (1910 to 1963)

The only change over the years was the monarch on the obverse and the change in silver content in 1946

1910 Obv - Edward VII
