Reverse looks well circulated. Do you reckon this is some kind of shed job?

Weight: 4.6 grams

Yes, PMD, and these are not uncommon. One face has been smoothed to improve mobility in the game of shove ha'penny.

Just been reading up on the rules of this pommy pub game. Very interesting. There's always someone trying to get an unfair advantage.

Of course we Aussies wouldn't dream of using such unsporting tactics whether it was a game of two-up or cricket.

No rim on the obverse, therefore easy to assume that it is underweight = PMD. Should weigh 5.67 grams.
