Hi everyone,
If anyone could help me grading thus coins please.
Upside down obverse?
Wider second 9 on the date?
The 0 of the 50 cents is weird?
Thanx in advance for your input..

- For the grade I would say VF-20
- Yes, it is an upside down coinage;
- I am not really sure of the variety;
- Concerning the 0 of "50 cents", it is probably a flan defect or a sealed corner. It would take better photos.

Oops ...
translation problem. I meant that it is either a
flaw planchet or a
filled die.
