Sunday ,..... I bet you all thought, "hey, I wonder what the old guy scored lol".
Well, the old guy scored washing up, doing the washing n hanging it out, general tidy up duties, n all that type stuff.
let you all in on a little secret, there is no housework fairy, just little old me lol :D
Maybe, just maybe, I'll get out a bit later on ,.... that's if these fairywings'll flap just a little faster ! :rainbow:

Ha Silver - I'm looking for a cook,cleaner and chief bottle washer :lol: are you available :D

Because you will be the chief bottle washer you will warrant a few more pennies :party:

Silver, what's the obverse of the half penny look like, looks pretty old to me? :)
Out n about Gp, I'll grind it back for a look when I get home :Y:
 
So, here's the other side of that haf penny.
1502369972_screenshot_2017-08-10-22-54-40.jpg

certainly needed a scouring on both sides.
Turns out the side we'd already seen had victoria on board
1502370103_screenshot_2017-08-10-22-54-11.jpg

with a Britannia reveal on the flip side
1502370165_screenshot_2017-08-10-22-53-44.jpg

turned out to be an 1866 1/2d
1502370235_screenshot_2017-08-10-22-53-13.jpg

Old, but not ancient :lol:
but I guess that means there is always a sov on the cards there somewhere. :Y:

Where are your Andre's pencils mate? Better than wearing down your thumb.

Knowing your skills in googling, I'm thinking you might have an idea on the age of this one.
Would I be close with a George 3rd Half penny?
