Yes we can see the photo but that shows nothing. Can you describe to us what we are meant to be looking at?

yes note the regular 50 cent coin has two coloured crowns; one small, one large;
on the two closely numbered sets I have, the printing on the smaller crown is not there,
hope this helps

A picture speaks a thousand words; as such I copied this pic and showed the area in question.  |

Looks like a mint error to me, There may be a premium for this set

I would buy another set so that you have a perfect coin and keep the 2 error sets for resale at a premium. As they are still in the mint sealed package they have less chance of being PMD  There are serious error collectors out there ( I'm not one of them) and these may just be rare |

I'm very unimpressed by the 50 cent in my set,very little colour in the emu & very poor strike,extra metal & colour around the 50. Did.nt really notice until you started these threads.   |

I had this marked as my next decimal coin purchase. Looks like I may have to be careful which ones I pick up.
