Very successful #banknote and #coin auction today - some of the #Polish coins fetched amazing prices. While the top price was predictably achieved by a #gold #Ducat which went for £2,000, quite a few #silver coins fetched prices in the hundreds. Other than a #telephone bidder (a longstanding client who spends big) all our bids today were obtained via the two online platforms we use (www.the-saleroom.com and www.easyliveauction.com).

Today is a 1 Shilling from British East Africa, nowadays modern Kenya, dated 1950. This coin was minted by Heaton and Sons from the Mint Birmingham, visible by the H mint mark (in the red circle).
Depicted are a lion with mountains in the back. The obverse depicts the crowned head of king George VI, looking left.

Another big hobby of mine is collecting coins. Here’s a nice coin from Peru.
This is a 5 Soles 2016. The obverse shows the Peruvian Coat of Arms, the reverse shows the Nazca Lines Condor.
The 5 Soles coin with this design has been around since 2016 (2 million were made in this year) and still is being issued every year.

One thing I really enjoyed learning about with this piece from Papua New Guinea was the the different tribes - particularly the #Skeleton #Tribe - which seems appropriate this week for Halloween
While the link here might be tenuous, what is your favourite #numismatic piece linked to #Halloween?

in the same bundle of change I got from them - Georgina Washington side by side one of the bicentennials, fascinating to see the contrast 👌
the local taqueria still consistently manages to provide me with the most fascinating change 😆 two new ones that I had not yet seen before now, and an opportunity to familiarize myself with some history that I never knew I never knew!

The Australian Bird of the Year 2025 has been announced!
Congratulations to the Tawny Frogmouth! A beautiful bird and a well deserved winner.
There aren't many coins featuring the bird, one in fact - and it came out just this year - the 5c piece in the Aussie Bubs set from the Royal Australian Mint features a cartoonish representation of the bird. Pictured is the coin - courtesy https://en.numista.com/464491
And the bird, from the Guardian article where you can learn more about the contest and this year's short-listed birds: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/live/2025/oct/16/australian-bird-of-the-year-2025-winner-announcement-live

The proposal for a US commemorative coin featuring Trump has drawn.... many comments from the #Numismatic community - a few I have seen and elected not to share - I'd rather comment on coins which do exist or at least are definitely in production, rather than politics. But this article from this week's E-Sylum compares the proposal to the first living person commemorated on a coin.... in Ancient Rome, and the impact of that - And I do like ancient Roman coins. (Spoiler: it's NOT Caesar, though he definitely gets a mention): https://www.coinbooks.org/v28/esylum_v28n41.html#article25
(Trump coin from E-Sylum, Roman coin from article linked in E-Sylum).

Canada just got a new coin shaped like a giant globe
Shaped like a globe and issued from Barbados, the Royal Canadian Mint's new release won't fit the average person's pocket.The new Blue Marble silver coin doesn't weigh as much as the now sold-out Big Silver Maple Leaf coin (which weighs a whopping 10 kg), but at 1 kg, it's still heavier than the usual assortment of change in your pocket.B...

Anyone got a contact for #nomisma ? Their #nuds documentation (https://nomisma.org/nuds) lists an incorrect version of the spec and its been really confusing as I try to unravel the state of play.

For #findsfriday we have a beautiful example of an early modern #coin. This single-sided silver coin was minted under Ferdinand I in #Graz. The obverse shows the shields of #Austria and #Styria in an upturned square, with the year “1537” above and the initial “F” below.
