There were no British Coins issued with a likeness of Edward VIII on them. The Royal Mint had set about designing them and a few pattern coins were produced. All of these coins are supposedly accounted for.
Some coins were produced and issued for some of the colonies including British East Africa and British West Africa, Fiji and New Guinea, but these coins did not feature his likeness, only his name.

Who produces fantasy Australian proof coins e.g. 1937 Edward VIII silver sixpence?
A "fantasy" coin is one that is struck on dies that were never used to produce legal tender "issued" coins such as any Australian Edward VIII coin, or dies that were never approved for use, such as the square Penny. In the case of Australian Edward VIII coins, only pattern versions of the Penny, Threepence, Shilling and Florin were ever prepared for 1937, and in all cases, the image of Edward VIII was removed making them a "uniface" coin, and on the Penny, the word "MODEL" was stamped on the obverse. There is no information available that suggests Australian Edward VIII fantasy coins, or genuine coins for that matter, actually exist. The dies for these coins were produced by the Royal Mint London, and they make no reference to them. A "facsimile" coin is an exact copy of a coin that should have some wording or marking on it indicating that the coin is not the genuine article. It is not unreasonable to expect that there may be Australian Edward VIII "facsimile" coins available. The line between facsimile coins and outright forgery is sometimes a little blurred, but since an Australian Edward VIII would obviously be a forgery, it is a moot point. The Royal Australian Mint has a strict policy on the use of Australian coin designs for any purpose, accompanied by severe penalties. Also, there is the matter of copyright on all coin designs since 1969. In the absence of any available useful information on the subject, I suggest you speak to a reputable coin dealer.

Currently adverstised on eBay for around $7 in uncirculated condition. Interesting coin due to the monarch being Edward Vlll who of course abdicated before being crowned. I keep mine as a key ring (hole in middle as was the practice for coins of this time and place)
What does no die mean on a Half-Sovereign?
Coins begin life as a blank metal planchette. The planchette is placed between two "dies" and struck, creating the impression on both sides of the coin. British gold coins such as the Five and Two Pound and the Sovereign and Half-Sovereign were usually minted where ever the gold was mined. Coins minted at the London Mint usually had the "Die number" at the bottom of the reverse of the coin, almost as a mintmark. Coins minted elsewhere had a letter indicating the Mint. Some London minted coins did not have the "Die number" on them, hence, "No Die". There will be no mintmark on them either, indicating that they were minted at the London Mint.

Why is there a hole drilled at the top of a 1927 and 1938 Australian penny?
No circulating Australian coin has ever been minted that includes a hole in the design. If your coins have holes in them, somebody put them there so that the coins could be worn as a pendant or similar.
