Title: 1922 Halfpenny errors.
Post by: Robster on November 07, 2016, 09:17:17 AM
Spent a few hours with my 1922 errors, hope these images are helpful.

 Obverse;  large die crack from left rim through King to right rim and extending to base of REX.

Four images displaying the Reverse Q. Image number two shows a separate lump below the common fault!

Excellent pics Robster. Looking at the second of the reverse Q pics, I'm thinking it could be renamed Reverse OZ with North island of NZ seceding;)
