I am sort of new at this and I am having fun learning, especially from the forums. I believe this is a Hong Kong 1958 Security Edge 50 Cent Coin.
Can anyone tell me if I am correct and what the value of the coin might be?

    To tell if it is the normal security edge, or the error w/o security edge, look at the 3rd side of the coin (the edges). If the edge looks like a sandwich, with a middle layer that had notches in it, between the two circular outer edges, then it is the normal security edge. If the edge looks like 1 solid piece of metal, then you have the error w/o security edge.

    Is that the mint mark below the E and N in "cents?"

    Yes, it is an "H" for the Heaton Mint in Birmingham, England.
