Hi all I am Pulling my hair out with this coin .Victoria Half-Penny 1862 now the 6 is definatley struck over something but the jury is out on what it is. Personally because I can see it it is a broken 8. I cannot see any other digit formation that would resemble the overstike. Behind the hair ribbon is a flaw of some kind or dropped digit .Base of the lighthouse I thought was a door but it resembles an 8+6 Have a butchers and your opinions would be gladly welcomed.

Cheers all Arfa Visit My Website
