Offered in this online estate auction is an authentic 1940 Fiji Penny, issued during the reign of King George VI and struck for use in the British Pacific colonies. This distinctive coin features the central hole design, a hallmark of Fiji coinage that makes it instantly recognizable and highly collectible among world-coin enthusiasts.
The obverse displays the crowned portrait of King George VI, while the reverse reads “PENNY FIJI 1940” with the royal crown and bold lettering surrounding the center hole. Coins from this period reflect Fiji’s colonial monetary system during the World War II era, adding historical depth and global interest.
This example shows honest circulation wear consistent with age and use, enhancing its vintage character. Holed coins like this are especially appealing to collectors of British Empire coinage, Pacific Island currency, and pre-decimal world coins.
A great addition to a world-coin collection, colonial history display, or as a unique collectible representing the value of vintage and global monetary history.
