Halfcrown 1920 Davies 1672N struck in a hard nickel type alloy and weighing 11.92 gr. There are 1924 trial nickel shillings, with a very rare example
struck metrically weighing 5 gr. The 1672N Halfcrown listed here may also
be a R.M. trial, when a complete elimination of silver seemed feasible. There
appears to be an interesting 'privy' mark, introduced by a thicker downstroke
to the 'D' of 'Dei' with the top and bottom serifs of this 'D' being double struck. The
border bead above compensates for this downstroke by being oversized. This would
be an odd occurrence for any counterfeiter, especially on top of striking perfectly
die-cut, but lightweight coins in this hard metal, and having excellent milling.
Only 6 of these examples are known to the vendor, NF/VG
