As Nick says, 2 lots from the London Coins March 2014 Auction (see below), and here's one from the DNW 21 June 2012 auction. As you can see, all 3 coins share identical imperfections (for example the small dig just above the King's eye). DNW 21 June 2012 Lot 732:1 point

The fake 1818 halfcrown doesn't seem to be known by some of the established auction houses. DNW and London Coins auction archives both contain examples of the fakes. In their March sale, London Coins sold two (lots 1652 and 1653) which exhibit all of the known flaws and a few more: dent in the forehead, nicks on the chin and the neck etc.1 point
