Great info, Ian - thanks.

Could you post a photo of the wavy one please.

Not quite - section 3 (pages 33 to 94) has been updated in its entirety with new varieties and pictures, so several new pages with suffixes (but not 94) - I'm helping with the proof reading.

Any idea of the ratio of 1856 PT small and large dates, Ian ?

As we get more and more divided by issues like Brexit, left v right, handling of the virus, etc, you may have a point. -

That's a lovely example, John - is it a new acquisition ? -
No-one knows.

I do have 2 photos of that coin and one does suggest an underlying 7 but the other doesn't. I'm sure it's not there. Trick of the light. Angles and lighting can make such a difference.

Yes, mine has those, too.

Interesting variation of Bramah 10c.

Social distancing ?????? -
Also found in 1856 where PT is large date and OT is small date. I believe that 1858/6 is always small date whereas 1858/3 (or 2), 1858/7 and 1858/? (Bramah 25c) are large date. 1858 small date exists without overdate.

I believe they were struck from sand-blasted dies for photographic purposes but that's only hearsay. The photos were taken through a slab but, as Freeman states, "the obverse is in extremely low relief". -
