Nice coins Dorado & Muddler! 
1926 was a funny year for UK coins with most denominations having two versions - with the original 1911-25 portrait and with the later Modified Head. It can be hard to tell which is which when the coins are heavily worn, but coins in VF or better look different, and the designer's initials are smaller and further to the right on the 'modified' coins, and often virtually indistinguishable.
All coins from the farthing to the halfcrown were issued:
Penny with the earlier effigy:
Modified Head penny:
Modified Head shilling:
Jersey penny:
France 2 Francs:
Monaco 2 Francs:
Germany 2 Marks:
Norway 1 Krone:
Greenland 25 ore:
USA Buffalo nickel:
Australian sixpence and shilling:
