Book excerpt: Excerpt from Numisma, Vol. 1: An Occasional Numismatic Pamphlet; November, 1943 Among the numerous coinages for colonies and possessions of the British Empire there occur issues of minor colns which are materially the same, in type and legend, as contemporary English issues. These coins occur from the reign of George IV through that of George V and are properly attributed to Ceylon, Malta, or British Guiana and the West Indies. It appears more convenient to list these pieces according to the reign in which issued, since the monarch's name appears on the coin and that of the colony does not. Moreover, these pieces are frequently listed as coins of England, and are thus grouped by reigns. The present paper attempts to gather information from a number of sources and to overcome the confusion caused by earlier omission or mis-attribution of these pieces.
