1929 South Africa Trial Strike 100 Brown Copper Half Crown MS64 SANGS
Bob Shop ID
613621346

This is an extremely rare Brown Copper (Cu) Trial Strike Half Crown. Weight=12.58gm.

Normal is made of 80% Silver, weighing 14.14gm.

So the Trial Strike is lighter, because Copper is lighter than Silver.

Perhaps it is a once off mintage.
