Best Answer

There were several variants of the 1862 British Halfpenny meaning that there were several (different) dies used to strike the coins.

The dies are identified by a letter A, B, or C.

The "die letter" is located to the left of the lighthouse.

Which "die letter" was used will effect the potential value of the coin.

I think by "hay penny", you possibly mean Halfpenny. The Halfpenny was one of the lowest denominations of the British currency and they were never struck in gold. Depending on when they were minted, they would have been struck in copper or bronze.
