not sure
i'll see if I can remember the one that I had/or have
I always thought it was PMD
but when I noted that on your nice unc coin, I thought hum
I think it's a die flaw of some sort - it is very straight and not jagged but knowing me', i'm wrong  :(

Nice UNC.
It looks like MS 63.
UNC 32 halfpennies and pennies are excellent coins.
Well struck.
They did a lot of work in 1931 trying to get a good strike etc.
And the 32s are the result.

Check out the dot to the left of the crown on the obverse.There are possibly also a couple of dashes just
to the left of the moustache and maybe a couple of dots also on the obverse bottom left hand side in the
field

Just lucky robbieg, I only had about 6 or 7 to look at, the winner is not as nice as steves but I will take it.!! Spent some time taking pics of die cracks and cropping severely, not sure whether they are any better but kept me busy.!!

Thanks AJ yes I have been doing well but might have to slow up for a while as my daughter needs to get 8 teeth out and then braces but after that it will be full steam ahead

Poor little bugger I hope she doesn't have too much trouble getting them out but yes they won't miss you getting all that work done. I don't know about the braces but I could do the extraction :angel:
