Australian 1954 1/2 Penny question
Posted: Tue Aug 29, 2023 5:29 pm
Hi All,
I have finally had time to go through my coin collection that I have had for many moons. Amongst them I found a very odd 1954 Y. 1/2 Penny. It is silver? At first I thought it must have been coated at some time by someone, but on closer inspection the coating is way too professional looking. Is it possible to be a silver proof? I have seen from a dealer a 1955 1/2 Penny Proof in silver. Any help would be appreciated.
