1926 Halfpenny Variety Multiple Die Cracks in Very Good Condition
This 1926 Australian halfpenny is an interesting variety coin for collectors who enjoy mint errors and die-state changes. Struck in copper under King George V, it measures 25.5 mm and weighs 5.67 grams, matching the standard specifications for the type. The mintage is unknown. Coins with clear, matching cracks like this are scarce. This is true when the cracks are strong enough to see without a magnifier.
