I have a 1926 George V half crown, I'm trying to ascertain which effigy type it is, also if anyone could give a hint at the grade - thank you.

Yes, yours is KM#818.2 which is the first type, not the modified effigy.
The way I tell is the : after BRITT where the first type has it
pointing
between teeth, and the second type has it pointing
at a tooth.
https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces21964.html First type (1920-1926)
https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces8120.html Second type (1926-1927)
............... First type ................................. Second type .......................... Yours (first type) .............
Alternatively the I in DEI is ...
First type it is pointing
at a tooth
Second type it is pointing
between teeth
P.S. The I in GEORGIVS is pointing at a tooth in both types.

Hi,
I tried all the letters and nothing was really evident because of the different sizes of beads, so I started the count. For your information Declan has NOT found your definition either?
Anyway, I'll have another look at it tomorrow!
Take care

I do not understand - are you saying I am wrong?!
Because I am not - the three pictures say it all.
And like he said, your documentation has the KM number wrong -
should be 818 not 828

Hi,
I'm not saying you're wrong! Not at all. I'll look at it tomorrow and document it!
In the meantime I've modified the km#!

Hi,
have a look and judge yourself? To me it looks the same, no? I didn't change the text, of course. Yesterday I really had a look allover, but today I'll try the letters and signs one by one.

Better, but is wrong lower left - still says 828.
The title now says 818 correctly.

Hi,
so you accept the change in the definition from what you thought, to what is actually provable (sorry, if this sounds provoking, it isn't).
Here is the modified documentation

What ??
And NO - it is NOT changed - did you not read what I wrote -
it STILL wrongly says KM#828.2 on lower left.
It should be KM#818.2 like the heading.
OK ?

I'm sorry, but your suggestion of the I from the DEI was wrong!
OK, brother?
