Hi,
Greetings...

I would like to share the images of 1858/7 Britain Half Penny with 8 over 7 on date and will be very happy to receive your kind suggestions.
With best regards,
Habib.

I personally don't think this is an overdate. There is a scratch in the lower loop of the '8' that makes it look like one. But if you compare a genuine 1857 halfpenny, you'll see that the '7' is quite broad and quite a distinctive shape, so I would expect the top of the '8' to be broader and more distorted:

This is just my opinion - I may well be wrong! Other CCF members will be happy to advise!

Something going on in the second 8 but doesn't look like the shape of the 7.
