You'll find that the 1951 halfpenny can also have a dot ... just depends where it was minted.

Looks to me that corrosion has caused distortion in that last number? Report this Post to the Staff

Mr T Pillar of the Community Australia 2180 Posts	Posted 12/13/2020 02:34 am Some years the dot definitely moves from memory - some of the more specialised books document the different positions but I'm not sure that most people bother with the variation. Report this Post to the Staff
