KM-9,1926 British West Africa penny,Royal Mint (no mint mark); copper-nickel, holed flan, plain edge; George V, very fine details - wear is mostly judged by the state of the crown, old (decades old) cleaning and re-toned, some porosity in the fields, see high resolution scansto estimate condition yourself and pictures for the overall look and feel.
A historical perspective may be necessary for those not familiar with British colonial West Africa monetary system. British African Currency Board established in London in 1912 controlled the issue and circulation of money across British possessions in the area - Nigeria, Ghana, British Cameroon (later merged with French Cameroon), Sierra Leone and Gambia - until the end of 50\'th to mid-60\'th.
To my overseas buyers and especially in Australia and New Zealand - US Postal Services may take up to 4 weeks to reach you, regardless of the estimation dates.
Please note if lists at the top of the page that I am away, I will only be able to ship coins once I return, I have to travel quite a bit for work. I always list the date of the return so that you can decide to buy and wait or buy a different coin. Thank you for your understanding.
Shipping by US Postal Services in the US is $2.50, overseas $3.50 uninsured, not tracked and not registered. If you win and would like your item to be sent either registered or insured, please contact me before paying. I combine on multiple wins when paid in single transaction - usually it is 40 cents per additional coin for domestic shipping and $1 for international, reasonably capped for weight and shipping method, heavier items will be more.
Each coin is individually scanned, I do not use stock pictures. I ship in plain white envelops and use bio-degradable materials when possible to limit environmental footprint. Returns are accepted if I send you the wrong item. Always offer on the item that is pictured, description sometimes gets copied from the other coins when I list. My grading or descriptive addition to the grading of the coin condition is subjective and disagreeing with it cannot be the reason for return.
