1946 Melbourne Australian Penny MS62

A scarce Mint State example of the 1946 (m) Australian Penny, struck at the Melbourne Mint and professionally graded MS62BN by PCGS.

The 1946 Melbourne Penny is a notably low-mintage issue, with only 240,000 coins struck, making it one of the scarcer dates within the King George VI Australian penny series.

Featuring the portrait of King George VI on the obverse and Australia’s iconic kangaroo design on the reverse, this example carries the “m” mintmark, identifying its production at the Melbourne Mint.

Graded MS62BN (Mint State 62, Brown), the coin has survived in uncirculated condition—particularly desirable for an issue with such a limited original mintage. The BN designation reflects its predominantly brown bronze colouration.

PCGS records just 32 examples at MS62BN, with 65 graded higher, adding further appeal for collectors seeking certified examples of Australia's scarcer pre-decimal issues.
