In 1066, the Halfpenny was an improvised coin. It was a Penny, literally cut in half. The symbol for the British Penny has long been a lower case "d" for the Roman "denarius" which was a Roman coin predating the Penny. In all probability, 1 Penny was shown as "1d" and 1 Halfpenny as "½d".

Lower case numbers are numbers that sit in line with the lower case letters. some of the numbers sit on the line as in 0, 1, 2, etc. Others drop below the line as in 4,7,9, etc. You can see examples of lower case numbers in some US coinage.
These are upper case letters, a.k.a. capital letters: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ These are lower case letters: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz They got those names because back in the days of manual typesetting, typesetters stored the capital letters in the upper case and the others in the lower case.
I work at a Kindergarten school...and we call them....guess what? lower case letters!!!
It is simply something done by the creator. It is an artistic statement, or so they say.
Artistic license, nothing else. The same stylistic spelling was used on Mercury dimes, among other coins.
I believe in the British Empire the symbol was a lower case letter " p" for pence .
On upper case the I, O, and Q. On the lower case letters I can't remember which are omitted.
The o's are not o's they are circles, in other words... circles under the eyes.
Lower case "o" and "x" both have two lines of symmetry. Upper case letters with two lines of symmetry are: "O," "X," "H" and "I."
Phosgene is a compound of carbon, oxygen, and chlorine. Its formula is COCl2. The lower case O in this formula shows that this is cobalt. The lower case I showes that we are talking about some unknown element.

Assuming you refer to the predecimal Sixpence, it was written as 6d. The lower case "d" is the symbol for Penny taken from the Roman coin the Denarius.

The lower case "d" has been used to identify various values of a penny since the Roman occupation of Britain. The very earliest British Penny was modelled on the Roman denarius, a coin of similar value. The "d" comes from the Roman "denarius".
If you are talking about a perfect circle, it has wan infinite number if lines of symmetry. If you are talking about and actual lower case o, then the answer is two.
