    Hi! I haven't posted here for a while. I specialize in world overdates—does anybody here collect them? While all my overdates are listed in Krause, there are no visual clues as to the markers; I had to do the research myself. Here are a few of my favorites; perhaps this visual reference will help other collectors.

    Australia 1933/1932 Penny
    In this overdate, I believe the whole date was rehubbed, not just the last digit.

    Hi, CurtS, good pics. Also have Aust 1933/32 penny. And what are you views on my English George 2nd "Lima" 1/2 Crown 1746/45?
    Also interesting is that "Lima" inclusion boasts the fact silver had been sourced from Spanish Galleon "booty" off South America. 1745 LIMA obv.jpg 1745 LIMA rev.jpg

    Wow, I like that coin! And a very interesting historic footnote too.
