could you please give more detail then doesn't look like it? they both look the same to me..that is why I am having a hard time figuring out if it is a 5 over 3

I don't know too much about it, and I may be wrong. However, in the auction listed below, you can see a small, faint line between the top line of thge five and the rest of the number, which looks like part of the numeral "3".

1865/3 GREAT BRITAIN HALF PENNY *8784 - Listing # 8271950

That is an error only visible on close examination, in the auction coin closeup it's barely visible.
Hope you got one!
