I can probably kick this one off with a couple of items.
From India

From Fiji

Oh you have me drooling, those are lovely. I am particularly fond of the NZ 2c.

Here is my christmas present from last year.

and the opposite, but interestingly and not lucky enough to be the other side of the planchet!

Nice error coins.

I only have a few halfpennies and pennies with cracks.

Show us more please.

This one is a NZ 2 cent piece on a 1c plancet

Very nice, I don't think I have any english coin errors as such.
I do have a 50p with a diecrack in the 2005 joint World Heritage pnc. Runs from the Queensneck to the rim.

My best coin buddy gave me this coin below. I have just picked up a friend for it on eBay, same year, denomination and same error but the hole is off-centre in the other direction!

What country and denomination is that?

gnome · September 12, 2012, 06:47:47 PM

I am still looking into it. I originally thought it was British India, a King Edward VII rupee. However the only reference I could find was for a gold coin. The weight is 11.6gm, silver, and with the British Indian coins The King is facing both ways, crown is facing left, uncrowned facing right.
Recently found this bit of info.

Is your coin silver? It's a little hard to tell from the images.
What was the gold coin you found reference to?

gnome · September 12, 2012, 08:57:29 PM

Yes it is silver, the reference was in an old copy of the Standard Catalogue of World Coins to the gold coin. Don't have a copy handy at present. Was going off some old notes.
I'll see if I can get a better image of it later.
