Good point Terry, I've added this info to my varieties website. -

Take a look at the F28s on my rarestpenny site - most of them have the dropped last 1 in the date like your picture. -

A bit tenuous in my view...................... -
Penny reverse ID please.

This one's the dead give-away. Even on the most worn specimen if 1860 or 1861. Look at the big pictures on my varieties website. Easier than looking at Freeman/Gouby books. -
It's very worn but I think it may be Victoria...........

March 2018 LCA
secret santa replied to 1949threepence's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
When they featured this in the preview I emailed them and suggested they describe it as F762 which it is and, although they thanked me for my email, they ignored me ! But it's rare one and whereas Michael Gouby originally suggested it might be a "late strike for VIPs", presumably because of the inverted reverse, the article by Paul Holland in the 2017 BNJ suggests it was an early strike and from a working die rather than a proof die. Still very rare though. -
Penny Acquisition of the week

C'est la vie - it was always a possibility even though a little disappointing. -
Penny Acquisition of the week

I'm glad you're pleased with it Mike. Always nice to see a collector add to his/her collection rather than someone buying just to make some easy money ! -
Pete, is there any way that you can get me the photos to add to my website ?
-
Is a metal detector included ?

This is just a format test

1900 Penny .. dot after O in One
secret santa replied to Colin88's topic in Confirmed unlisted Varieties.
why oh why did Freeman have to record F147 ?????????????????? -
Thanks Mike - that was a hell of a bargain.
-
Definitely - yes please. If collectors have further examples of any of the rare pennies shown, I'd appreciate details to further improve evidence of rarity.
-
Mike Have I got that one on my rarest website ? R
-
Thanks Declan, and Pete has just mailed me a copy so Happy Days.
-
Great work Declan. Would you mind if I use your stats on 1913 pennies for my penny varieties site ?

1911 1d die break through date
secret santa replied to coinkat's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Don't recall seeing one but a die break shouldn't be enough to make it a particular variety (IMO) -
Upload pictures here please, not external hosts
secret santa replied to Peckris's topic in Forum technical help and support
I do something very similar - I take high quality pics with a digital SLR and macro lens, store them on my PC and on ONEdrive (cloud) whilst keeping a duplicate set of pics reduced in size by 60% using Photostudio (from 2 or 3 megabytes to <500 Kb) on both for uploading to here or websites.
