1951 Y. Halfpenny with 1952 Obverse 5 (149 Denticles) in Uncirculated Condition
This Australian 1951 “Y” halfpenny is a handy date to know if you collect George VI copper. What makes this piece stand out is the 1952 Obverse 5, identified by the 149 denticles (the small tooth-like beads around the rim). Collectors often miss this detail, so it is worth checking carefully under good light or a loupe before you buy.
