Australia’s second lowest mintage penny, behind only the 1930, the 1925 Penny is one of the most important, most desirable dates of Australia’s first national currency system. Struck at the Melbourne Mint exactly 100 years ago, and missing from a vast majority of collections, the chance to obtain this key predecimal date coin should not be missed!
By any standard, the mintage of the 1925 Penny is tiny. Issued in the Roaring 20s, during the reign of King George V, the Melbourne Mint struck a mere 117,240 coins. Thus, even if every 1925 Penny was still in existence, the number struck in this year would still be considered miniscule. As a result of the high circulation rate of the penny denomination, combined with the passing of exactly a century, the number of 1925 Pennies actually available to collectors today is naturally tiny.
With few examples of this crucial Australian predecimal date remaining in decent grade, the opportunity to secure the 1925 Penny in highly collectable Fine condition must be grasped with both hands. Click add to cart now!
