Another interesting Coin whilst i have a bit of spare time,my Brother purchased it and asked for my opinion,probaly nothing and possibly just a strike from a new Die but in hand it just seems different from a normal 27 Penny.I may be getting my dates mixed up but i have a vague memory of reading where they did some 'Special' strikes in preparation for the 1927 Proof Penny,nothing shows on Google so hoping someone here my have an Opinion.
