Got this one noodling $1 bag. Are they called die fill ? Similar one on eBay says struck through

Hi Basilstate,
Thanks for your comment.
The reason for my query is because I collect pre decimal varieties and Renniks list a 1931 half penny as
Last 1 in date dropped and Last 1 in date in correct position.
There are a number of eBay sellers quoting dropped 1. I tend agree with you as a couple are quoting dropped and normal and I can't see any difference between the two.
Thanks again.

Hi Basilstate
Thanks for your comment.
I collect pre decimal varieties thus the reason for my query as Renniks lists a 1931 half penny
dropped 1 and another in correct position.
Also there are many sellers listing dropped 1 .
One idiot is asking $880. Maybe they think listing as a dropped 1 will attract more buyers.
Thank again.

Hi 
Attached is photo of date on half penny.
Is it a normal one or a dropped one ?.
Is there a simple way to determine which ?.

Hi,
Thks for your comment.
A guy on the global community forum suggested it is a full lamination peel but I don't agree as the thickness is exactly the same as a normal cent. A bit of information that may help to identify error
in the hand and under magnification I can just make out the queen.

Hi,

Another one I would like an opinion on.

What sort of error would this one be classified as ?.

Sorry about the photo of the reverse. Couldn't quite get is any bigger.

Thanks

Quote from: 'fred lever' pid='129634' dateline='1729503909'Hi guys, it looks like an incomplete planchet to me.
The edge is typical.

Cheers, Fred.

Thanks Fred. If anyone would know it is you. Surfing the net the closest I could get to it is an article on Feb 7 2022 in
The Australian Coin Collecting Blog which quotes an article in Australasian Coin and Banknote magazine June 2021. It is not quite the same as mine. Coincidentally it also relates to a 1961 Shilling. Maybe someone tried to copy it but why would anyone bother.
Irrespective I guess it is worth keeping.

Thanks again.

Michael

Can anyone confirm if this 1961 shilling is possibly a elliptical clipped coin. it also appears to have a planchet error on the obverse. I'm just new to posting on the forum so please excuse me if the photos are not great.
