1972 Guyana Cent

Do you have a Guyana coin and want to know its value? Leave a comment

This one stood out because of the intricate and beautiful reverse. Very rarely do you find a coin that puts nothing but a design on one side of a coin. This is because there are so many things a coin is legally mandated to display that every bit of space is needed.

British rule ended in 1966 and Guyana became a republic by 1970. It was until 1976 that they got there on crest which has been used along side the stylized design for most of the late twentieth century. 

Stylized lotus flowers.
BANK OF GUYANA 1972 on outer circle, ONE 1 CENT on inner circle.
This coin looks much more brass colored in hand but the lack of sunlight mad it more coppery.
 
Here's the stats...
Type/Country: 1 Cent / Guyana
Year: 1972
Mintage: 4,000,000
Metal: Nickel-Brass
Value: $0.05 in VF

I have a NZ 1967 50c coin that has a piece missing about 10mm long and the exact radius of the coin. Looks as if it has been punched out in error when minted.Does this coin have any extra value? Thanks
Cheers

Clip error about $20.00 but I hardly see them at auction or graded so this is a best guess judging other world coin errors.
