The 1920-M Sixpence was the final issue in the sixpence series to have a Melbourne 'M' mint-mark. The
reverse features W. H. J. Blakemore's simple Coat of Arms design and the
obverse houses George W. De Saules portrait of King George V. The small 'M' mint-mark is also located beneath the
date on the reverse. The total
mintage
for the year was 1,476,000 which is relatively typical for the series.
Melbourne 'M' mint-mark on the reverse of a 1920-M Sixpence.
Between 1916 and 1920 the Melbourne Mint produced sixpence with
a small 'M' mint-mark. In 1921 the mint-mark was removed when the Commonwealth Government decided they wanted the dies to
be interchangeable between mints.
