Notes:
Australia's first pennies dated 1911 bore no mint mark and were struck by London mint which also produced the entire mintages in 1913 and 1914. In 1915 it shared production with the Heaton Mint, Birmingham which it had previously sub-contracted to strike the 1912 pennies. The Heaton Mint pennies of 1912 and 1915 bear an 'H' mint mark. This penny date was hoarded by Baldwins (London) and so is easily found with full mint bloom. Baldwins also put aside hoard quantities of the 1912 H Halfpenny, the 1927 'Canberra' Florin & the 1937 Crown which were sold off in recent decades.
