Comments

Wszystkie nominały proof z 1938 roku zostały pierwotnie wybite w nakładzie 100 sztuk. Trzygroszówka była jedyną, która została wyprzedana. Większość z tych nakładów została sprzedana za granicę, w szczególności do Stanów Zjednoczonych Ameryki. Sprzedano 94 monety o nominale 100 szylingów, a reszta została prawdopodobnie przetopiona i zniszczona.
