    1966 missing waves

    Thanks for Sharing Terry, I've only seen this on the 1967 too. Interesting to note it is on a previous year, even though the reverse dies were different.

    Well it's only there on the phone, so if you're on your computer you won't see it! From Richard's screenshot;

    Try tapping the 'hamburger' again, then swiping from right to left, I think the menu is being hidden on the right because of the bad fit for the advert..

    It's been done, so shout if you still get the old quotes/posts coming up in the reply box. Mine seems to be fine right now.

    A nice coin Peter, and like Paulus says a really good price! And there I was thinking you hated us penny boys

    1920 Penny 3+B

    Pipped to the post good link Mike

    1920 Penny 3+B

    I don't think the chances are very high Ian, as far as I know the only known one is sitting in the British museum. There is a picture lurking somewhere I'm sure I've seen it, if I find it I'll post back here for you.
  11. I'm leaning toward a combo of Jerry's and Ian's thoughts, it has such likeness to the shape of having tape across it while the rest of it has been exposed to something.
  12. Welcome to the dark-side But seriously that's a great coin AND an equally great photo, especially through a slab!
  13. Whoops That should of course be 22mm.
  14. Definitely great advice from Matteo, it should weigh 7.98 grams and have a diameter of 22m. Depends how good your scales are of course!
  15. Excellent news! This was a great idea and glad you found one so quickly. Thanks for updating us too
  16. Yes that works. One question - does the strip across the reverse match directly to the 2 'squares' on the reverse, so you could follow the outer lines and they meet up? I don't think there is any example of a lamination flaw with such perfect shapes, but how it was done is the real question.
  17. Doesn't work for me? Possible filled die for the 1947? Strange tail end on the 9 though, maybe PMD.
  18. Now it works very nice coins, especially good detail on the crosslet 4.

    1912h penny

    It's very much an American phenomenon, error collecting, but that just means that UK errors are all that much cheaper, so I'm not complaining too much

    1912h penny

    Thanks to Pete I've just upgraded mine, my previous one was from Declan Magee @ £90, which he got from Lockdales - Auction 109 - Lot 1747 - for just under £74 with the juice. If anyone wants it, I'd be happy with what I paid (£90) and I'll cover the postage from Spain. Picture attached: Also if it is of any added interest to anyone, the PENNY has strike doubling, but you can only see this under magnification:
  21. That's a cracking coin Jerry, and if any of the ones Pete has sent me compared to the CGS pictures are anything to go by, it must be a beauty in hand!

    Date run of pennies, about 1903-1927

    Haha, yep you need to submit at least one white paper on a coin subject of your choice Its just an automatic group name for anyone with 200 posts or over, your edit time increases with it.

    1912h penny

    Strike doubling/mechanical doubling is where the doubling happens during the striking process, like when the coin shifts slightly during a strike or the vibrations cause the die to jolt out of position. It's different to doubled die strikes/hub doubling which is where the doubling has occurred during the die making process, in case you're wondering.

    10 minutes editing time for newer members, it increases once you become part of the 'Numismatic Research Group'.
