Description from the seller

BRITISH WEST AFRICA. 1/10 Penny. 1950. George VI (1936–1952)

- Value: 1/10 Penny.
- Reign: George VI (1936–1952).
- Year: 1950.
- Inscriptions: Obverse: BRITISH WEST AFRICA · 1950. Reverse: GEORGE VI S · REX · TEN TH OF A PENNY, with an Arabic inscription at the bottom.
- Grade: SP67 (PCGS).

A perforated coin issued for British West Africa, distinguished by its distinctive geometric design. The obverse features a linear six-pointed star centered on a circular hole, with a peripheral legend and the date at the bottom, arranged symmetrically and showing a strong symbolic influence. The reverse displays the denomination One Tenth of a Penny around the central hole, topped by the imperial crown and accompanied by an Arabic inscription, reflecting the cultural diversity of the colonial territory. The specimen retains sharp reliefs, clean fields, and well-preserved original luster, with minimal visible friction, presenting an outstanding appearance in keeping with its high SP67 grade.

Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside EU that has special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
