The set of eight thick wood coasters is in a hand turned holder. All the wood has nice graining. All the coins bear the date of 1945 and the words "JAMAICA FARTHING" on the exposed reverse. Four of the coins still have some  lustre. Details are sharp on most of them. One or two look like they were "used" as coasters. One coin was loose so I have left it off to photograph the obverse which bears the image and the words "GEORGE VII KING AND EMPEROR OF INDIA". There is a coin on the top of the box which is very dark - from 58 years exposure to the air, I guess. Please email any questions.
