Fiji Dollar 1969 to 1976

Compare the coin in our primary picture, upper left, to the one in our secondary picture, lower right. The primary coin would sell to a collector for about $8 US dollars. The secondary coin might bring $2.

The primary coin has mint luster, a frosty, creamy appearance that appears on coins immediately after minting. Microscopic metal flow lines radiating outward from the center of the coin cause the lustrous effect. With just a little handling, the microscopic lines vanish and the value of the coin plummets.

worn: face value, one dollar in Fiji
