Halfcrown 1868 Fair, one of the 'missing' dates in the Young Head Halfcrown series, accompanied by a Royal Mint letter, related correspondence, newspaper cutting stating that the owner refused £1700 for the coin the 1968, and photographs taken in 1968, the letter believed to be the letter quoted in the ESC stating that the coin is 'probably genuine', mentioned by way of footnote in ESC by Rayner in the 1992 edition, page 85, these pieces recently reported as unrecorded in the Royal mint striking records, Harrington Manville the famous US numismatist once pointed out to us these so called missing dates were most definitely not struck by the Royal Mint, and this seems now to be the popular opinion

Threepence 1920 Davies 1934A this new obv. 5 appears to be a companion to the lower relief Halfcrown , florin and shilling obverses. The portrait is fractionally larger than obv. 3 and the field rises slightly in front of the forehead. This lower relief portrait is mainly achieved by a shallow style, 'hollowed' neck with further indentations to the forehead. Both known examples have a distinct die flaw running from the border beads through the upright of the second 'T' in 'Britt' to the top of the head and are the only two known to the Peter Davies . NVF and extremely rare
