Best Answer

HP is the initials of the designer (Thomas Humphrey Paget) of the obverse (heads) side of the coin. This will appear on all Australian Pennies from 1937 to 1952.

KG is the initials of the designer (George Kruger Gray) of the reverse (tails) side of the coin. This will appear on all Australian Pennies from 1937 to 1964.

PL is a mintmark and indicates that coin was minted at the Royal Mint London. The 1951 Penny was the only Penny of this design to be minted in London.

A dot after the "Y" in PENNY (PENNY.) is the mintmark indicating that the coin was minted at the Perth Mint.

No mintmark indicates that the coin was minted at the Melbourne Mint.

What is the M P mintmark on a 1941 Australian Penny?

There is no "MP" mintmark on any Australian Penny. A 1941 Australian Penny minted in Perth will have a "." after the "Y" in PENNY (Y.), or a "." between the KG (K.G) on the reverse. A 1941 Australian Penny minted in Melbourne will have no mint mark at all. The letters HP on the obverse below King Georges head are the initials of the designer, Thomas Humphrey Paget. The letters KG on the reverse above the kangaroos tail are the initials of the designer, George Kruger Gray.

What is written on the 1948 Australian Penny with Georgivs VI?

Other than mintmarks and the year, the Australian 1948 is almost identical to all Australian Pennies minted from 1938 to 1948 inclusive. The legend around the circumference on the obverse reads "GEORGIVS VI D:G:BR:OMN:REX F:D:IND:IMP." in heavily abbreviated Latin meaning, "George VI, by the grace of god, king of all the British territories, defender of the faith, Emperor of India". The letters "HP" below the bust are the initials of the designer, Thomas Humphrey Paget. The reverse has "AUSTRALIA" around the circumference at the top, and "PENNY" around the circumference at the bottom. There is a left facing hopping kangaroo centrally located with the Commonwealth Star below the kangaroos head and the date is below the kangaroos tail. The letters "KG" below the kangaroos tail are the initials of the designer, George Kruger Gray. 1948 Pennies minted in Melbourne have no mintmark. 1948 Pennies minted in Perth have a "." after "Y" in PENNY (PENNY.) as a mintmark.
