I think that this may be the first coin that ive seen from Queen Elizabeth the Second reign as monarch of England, that DOESNT have her likeness on the coin. Im sure there are others out there,but i found a time capsule of sorts, a stash of OLD Westinghouse Refrigerators promo give away coin bags from the EARLY to mid 1950s, with coins from around the world in AU/BU condition. This is just one of the OVER 20 foreign coins in the bags, many, were surprisingly quite valuable, first year or last year type coins, that are worth a couple bucks ($3-15ea,so far). i will slip a pic of the bag in too.I think they are prettyneat old coins, in very good shape, and GIRAFFES to boot! How often do you see those on coins, and NOT the monarch of England?

CONECA (pronounced: CŌ´NECA) is a national numismatic organization devoted to the education of error and variety coin collectors. CONECA focuses on many error and variety specialties, including doubled dies, Repunched mintmarks, multiple errors, clips, double strikes, off-metals and off-centers—just to name a few. In addition to its website, CONECA publishes an educational journal, The Errorscope, which is printed and mailed to members bimonthly. CONECA offers a lending library, examination, listing and attribution services; it holds annual meetings at major conventions (referred to as Errorama) around the country.
CONECA was formed through a merger of CONE and NECA in early 1983. To learn more about the fascinating HISTORY OF THE ERROR HOBBY and THE HISTORY OF CONECA, we encourage you to visit us our main site Here
