Rare mule halfpenny

[will1976 231]

I couldn't make it to the midland coin fair today but I did find this little beauty in my local shop, it's a bit of a weak strike and it does have a nasty die crack running through the obverse but it has lovely chocolate tones too it...........

Why is it a mule?

Sorry I'm not too well up on unofficial things like tokens. Who made it for example?

Ah. Cadbury mint halfpenny - I only have a penny so wasn't on the ball.

I couldn't get the sticky label off it otherwise I'd have done it with the foil. Oh and it's now a quarter penny!!!

I usually get there at opening and my back is finished by 1pm with all the stooping.
