    I couldn't resist posting photos on one more church I visited when in holiday in Rome. It's the church of the Jesuits. I was walking back to the hotel in the dark and decided to drop in for a quick look. Was taken back by the beauty, splendour and size of the interior.

    Very nice ID there Lotad. Less detail in the leg and arm = Type I More detail in leg and arm = Type II I think even I can remember that!

    Yes, sorry, the 1st and 3rd images are the same coins (type 1) 2nd and 4th are the same (type 2). The horse leg and dragon arm were the main elements I saw to differentiate them. I had 6 x Type 1 and 9 x Type 2. I don’t recall there being a correlation between the different kinds of boxes.

    Having looked at this more than a few times, I can't see any trace of either top or bottom arm corresponding to an E so will stick with H. A reasonable question though given the small lump in the image, and the upside down B on the other 2d reverse die. Given the date is 1786 in both instances, it may have been the same engraver responsible for both dies. People are creatures of habit. We could of course compromise and say E over inverted E or H.

    I've attended lots of recitals and performances in the Lady Chapel, a programme of Tallis being particularly memorable. The acoustics are wonderful.
