[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 4400687, member: 66"]I can understand how it was made, just not why. Brass plate. half penny on plate face down, blank die about halfpenny sixe with a cross cut into it, WHACK! The cross does not appear to be heavily worn so apparently it didn't circulate much if at all after the counter strike. That would tend to indicate the half penny was fairly worn at the time of the counterstriking.[/QUOTE]
