Question about 1861 Halfpenny, 6 over 8

[wybrit 2]

Does anyone posting to this forum have a good picture showing the 6 over 8 overstrike for an 1861 ½d? Having never seen one, I'd like to know what the features are to help ID a piece being posted on the CU forum. Thank you in advance.

I have some good pictures of a 1861 6 over 8 Penny, but not the half Penny.

Just the pictures of the 6/6 that I posted on CU....... As I said, to the best of my knowlege, the 6/8 is actually a 6 over higher 6....... which looks similar to the 6/8 F-30 penny, but is not the same.......
