Description:

Offered in this online estate auction is an authentic 1941 Fiji Sixpence silver coin, issued during the reign of King George VI and struck amid the World War II era. This classic British Commonwealth world coin features the iconic Fiji sea turtle reverse, a beloved and distinctive design highly sought after by collectors of Pacific and colonial coinage.

The obverse displays the crowned portrait of King George VI, while the reverse showcases the detailed turtle motif with the denomination Sixpence, making this coin an excellent example of mid-20th-century Fiji currency. Struck in silver, this piece offers both numismatic and precious-metal appeal.

The coin is housed in a protective holder and shows honest circulation wear consistent with age, adding to its character and historical charm. A wonderful addition for collectors of world silver coins, British Empire coinage, WWII-era currency, or Fiji numismatics, and an appealing piece for those who appreciate the value of vintage.
