Trinket Box, Cherrywood, Center Of Lid Australian 1946 Penny.

Australian pennies that you might find are the 1925 and 1946 pennies. 1925 has the Commonwealth of Australia design on the tails side, while the 1946 penny has a kangaroo on the tails side. Both are well worth looking for.

The 1946 penny is Australia's 3rd rarest penny one of the last gaps to be plugged in most penny albums, and a real prize in top condition. The mintage was among the lowest in the entire penny series because 145 million pennies had been struck in the seven years leading up to 1946, and few extra coins were required once Australian and US armed forces began to demobilize in September 1945.
