1960 1/2d die crack

[Unicorn]

Nice ones Trout.

Gee there's a lot going on with the halfpenny! Is that lamination over on the ET of ElizabETh, or is it the shadow of the die crack(s).

[lacey]

[robbiegal]

[ausjack]

Hello lacey, you've been quiet mate so hope all is well

[Robster]

Nice coins, love the 1/2d.!

[Unicorn]

Is that lamination over on the ET of ElizabETh, or is it the shadow of the die crack(s).

It's still got me stuffed, but I'm leaning towards it being a very high die crack and hence casting a shadow. :scratch_one-s_head:

[trout]

Definitely a large die crack, Here is an image from a different angle :ok:



Also from the "H" to the denticals  in HALFPENNY on the reverse

[Unicorn]

Gee it's a beaut Trout. I really love how the cracks ride along the top of the letters themselves. Had it seen much circulation then they probably would have been flattened.

I'm going to have to dig out my 1960 1/2ds now!

[Nevol]

That Die Crack on the 1960 ½d obv looks like it had the potential to develop into a big cud covering the tops of the letters. Unless someone here has one, we'll probably never know if it happened. Great error trout! :yahoo:

There is a lot going on with the obverse of this coin.
The reverse is perfect.

I'm buggered if I know how you do this sort of thing all the time Nancy.
Quite a bit of effort doing this :angel:

[ausjack]

gee mate ya doin ok for some one who doesn't collect error :winkextra:

[Unicorn]

Is there one on the reverse going from the rim to the bottom right corner of the H then across through the top of the A towards 1960?

[trout]

Good eyes Uni, there is a very small one there :good:
