Hi all,

Seems I have a few pennies and half pennies with errors but I'm not up to speed with what each one is called.

Has someone already posted a topic on all of the different types or is someone willing to explain what each one is, what it's called, and how it's happened?

Cheers

Pennies and halfpennies are prone to die cracks and planchet flaws/metal peel. There are also many other errors obviously and if you can get photos of the ones you have then we can help you. By reading topics in this errors forum you should also get a pretty good idea of some of the errors out there.
