Thanks. I can JUST about make it out now you've told me, but perhaps you hammered guys are more used to knowing where to find it!

It's amazing how the letters are so neatly and completely removed! (Almost looks like it was intentionally done.)
Don't ignore that the original Reddit post was made by someone called Brexit-Cereal... !

Also, I too can see an H, but feel it’s just a collection of anomalies that create the illusion of one. This probably represents the view of quite a percentage of those who said they could see one, which likely puts the percentile well into the NO camp. 😉
Having dismissed the H as an anomaly, I might have to revise my opinion as I saw the face of Jesus on my slice of toast this morning...

Thank you Richard, this is what I would like to track down.
It was thanks to Michael's footnote in that - about the 1946 ONE' penny being scarcer than the 1926ME - that I finally managed to get Spink to include it in their Standard Catalogue.

Can also clearly see the 'WRL' on the reverse. Westair Reproductions Ltd, I think. They make replicas for museum gift shops etc and they always have WRL stamped on them.
You've better eyesight than me then! I was looking hard for just that but couldn't see it...

I'd be happy to rate that EF (perhaps AEF on the obverse, just a trace of extra wear on the hair?)

Im going to study the 1875 and 1875 H there must be an identifiable die characteristic unique to the H coins. Lets see.
On a relatively high grade penny like that, the H would show strongly. What you've got there is a ghostly anomaly, and I'd agree - no H

There is some noticeable scuffing on the obverse, but even so I would estimate around £1500 (EF)

According to the Proclamation of 30 July 1971, recognition of the silver crown, double florin, florin, shilling and sixpence as currency refers to coins minted after 1870. The florin (1993), shilling (1990) and sixpence (1980) were later demonetised leaving only the crown, double florin and Maundy coins.
The florin and shilling would still be with us if the Mint hadn't reduced the size in 1992 and 1990.

Just one of the ubiquitous modern replicas... Not even good enough to fool anyone except an idiot.
That's very naughty. As you say, a modern replica 'aged'. It's not even a proper George V penny altered (e.g. 1935) which people are willing to pay up to £200 for in order to fill a gap.

You have done very very well! Edward VII halfcrowns in high grades are worth good money.
Let me get the least valuable out of the way first: the two 1902 coins might just about get £100 each, the 1910 perhaps £250, though more to the right buyer.
All but two of the others - 1906/7/8/9 - would be worth at least £300-£400 each, maybe more if we could see bigger pictures (the difference between EF and Uncirculated is the difference between e.g. £300 and £700).
Now for the best news: the 1904 - if nearer to UNC than EF has got to be worth well over £1000. The 1903 is the rarest (after 1905 which you don't have); it may have been cleaned, but should still be worth between £1500 and £2500, though it would be good to see bigger pictures.
Can you post a larger picture of each coin? You'll need to make several posts to get round the size limit for each separate post.

Anyone got a link to it?

Two of those ARE shillings - the 5p and the Irish shilling.

It's less than VF in my book, but who cares with a rarity like that!

Heres my 1799 a lovely example bought recently at least EF with lustre and no problems only £20 I wish i had a 1806 and 1807 is similar grade
Strangely, the 1806 is so so common in lower grades but much scarcer than the penny and farthing in top grades.

I agree with Richard and Jerry - there's nothing there that couldn't be accounted for by a difference in grade or die wear, or an infinitesimal recutting of the tiniest details.

But no, I wouldn’t clean it myself in anything other than soap and water, and I assumed that silver dip would fall into the cleaning category and be a non-starter.
Do you think that silver dip get that stuff off, if that’s what it is?Tip: place the coin GENTLY into the dip for ONLY TEN SECONDS. retrieve gently and rinse thoroughly in clean water, then dab dry gently with a clean lint-free cloth. If that doesn't remove all the discoloration, learn to live with it.

I received this coin by surprise as part of a lot of pennies is it Contemporary Counterfeit?

NOT correct, not for the USA where after independence in 1776 it wasn't a capital offence to produce and circulate evasions.
