1973 20 CENTS COIN VARIETY

Malaysia Parliament 1973 20 Cents Coin With Die Varieties.

Rarity:RR

While I am going through my first series of Malaysia 20 Cents coins (Parliament Series) last week end, I found 20 Cents minted in year 1973 with die varieties.


The date "1973" below the denomination on the reverse has two die varieties. Variety 1 (V1),the year "1973" is normal in fon,design and size like other 20 Cents coins on other years. But on Variety 2 (V2), the number "3" of year 1973 is slightly apart or further from number "7", its looked like "197 3".





I hope when you search through your collection you may discover some pieces of this die variety.Good luck!

  4. Hi Sonny,
    Only the serious collectors appreciate and value such "tiny variation". We enjoyed collecting them.For others who are not a collector, they will never understand what we mean.
    They only lol and never learn anything.
