again a lovely fractional. The only overdate I am aware of is 1851 over 1850 which as I remember is mostly a 1 over 0. This is an interesting coin and I hope someone much more knowledgable than I sees it.

Hi tfred I an an avid hunter of all things not quite what they appear to be. I search for errors and over dates. I think you'll find that that is not 5 over 5. Just by the shape . There is no angle to it more a gentle curve Look at this 2 < turn it upsidedown and that is what I believe has happened.These errors do hold premium but its a minefield. If its slabbed they sell like hot cakes. Private sale I would advise. or if you sell on ebay sell it at fixed £150-£200 . I have lost too many good coins for pittance starting at 99p. I picked up this from an unseen auction lot 1827 1/3 Farthing S/I in GEORGIVS. Mines of ebay for £125.
Nice coin good luck with it
