Best Answer

You are asking about a Half Penny coin from South Africa (KM#24). The coin is 25mm in diameter and made of bronze. The front bears an image of King George the Sixth and the words "GEORGIVS VI REX IMPERATOR" (Latin for "George the Sixth, King and Emperor" - "Emperor" refers to his title as Emperor of India). The back has an image of the ship "Dromedaris" and the date "1947" above, the words "SOUTH Africa" to the left and "ZUID-AFRIKA" (Afrikaans for "South Africa") to the right, and "1/2 D"" below ("D" being the symbol for "penny"). Only 258,000 were produced in 1947, the lowest annual mintage of George the Sixth's reign.

According to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, the coin is valued at US$1.00 in Fine condition, US$3.00 in Very Fine condition, US$6.00 in Extremely Fine condition, and US$17.50 in Uncirculated condition.
