    Yes,
    At one tme I recall there being a big deal about "full pineapples" on the reverse of these. Did that apply just to Victoria or also later coins of Jamaica?
    Love that Milled British (1830-1960)
    Well, just Love coins, period.

    I've been tempted by the relative affordability of some late-Victorian proof Jamaican pennies and halfpennies, as they seem prone to attractive toning, but so far I've never managed to nail one down- I always get outbid. Not that I collect them, anyway, but if I were a wealthier man I would have a lot of nineteenth century proof coins.

    PS- those are nice, BTW.

    I've always liked that whitish-gold color of their copper-nickel coins.
