If you’re looking to buy a quality Australian penny you’ve come to the correct place. The Purple Penny stocks a full range of Australian pennies including colourful Perth Mint examples from the 1950’s and 1960’s through to earlier dates from 1911 onward bearing the portraits of King George V and King George VI. Collectors looking for an affordable George V 1d should look toward 1911 or 1936. For a nice George VI Penny look no further than a 1948 or 1949 Melbourne 1d. Queen Elizabeth pennies are affordable for most years but we’d suggest looking at 1956M pennies as these are often very well struck.
When possible we’ll get our Australian pennies graded by PCGS. This gives the collector certainty as to the grade and authenticity of the coin. An added bonus is the extra protection that a PCGS or NGC slab affords the coin, drop a PCGS slab and you won’t damage your coin!
