he he the threepence page says it’s called “tadpole” between p-e in pence.
I ended up buying this little coin, its cute.
Probably one of the better quality threepence I have ;)

not an error coin - but pretty enough to be in the eye candy class!

This is one of my better 3d coins.
It is MS and could be even a MS64
AC I will have to go through my spare 3d coins and send you some.
