They all show some streaking from improper alloy mixing, the 43 shows a lamination oce again from problems in the melting and alloying of the metal. Possibly from contaminants in the melt or excessive gasses dissolved in the metal that were not given time to escape from the melt.

All quite common British threepences, but that lamination error is interesting!
