RLC35 Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 I just bought this 1861 Half over Halp, Half Penny from a guy in Italy. This is a pic from his add. I'll send some better pic's when I receive the coin. Quote
Bronze & Copper Collector Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 HI Bob,When it arrives, check for the obverse variety...The HALP variety exists with both Obverse 6 and with Obverse 7...The obverse 6 is the more common of the two.... The obverse 7 is much scarcer....... Quote

I have Mal Lewanden's disk of half penny varieties, I'll have a look! Quote
