The quality control on modern coins is absolutely appalling , its seems to be the same with all circulation coins , but you would think they could make an effort on a celebration issue. When you consider the detail and astounding quality of the coinage a hundred years ago in Edwardian times such as this 1903 penny , just a circulation issue, but so fine that it could be a proof. The flecks are just remaining lustre .

Its just an 1882 penny that's been hand engraved, but I must say quite professionally done.

Your catching the bug, that's why I collect pennies, there's millions of them.

Its a funny thing Jerry, but if the copies were to be absolutely perfect , we would not now them to be copies at all, and except them as genuine, we would of course all be wondering where all of the new examples were coming from. This would have the effect of lowering the average price of all the coins, genuine and fake. -

Hi Mick. The one you have as F24 looks to me like an F27 4+d The F32 looks like an F33 6+d And the F28 is really bad but I would guess an F36 6+g. Terry -

1861 F32 - 1901 Gouby Aa Last 1 to gap - 1937 unlsted 2+B proof
terrysoldpennies replied to terrysoldpennies's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Gouby was sent a picture of one in 2010 , but never actually handled the coin. There is in fact three types but the middle one is so similar to the normal one as to make it extremely difficult to tell them apart. I should add that although slightly rotated the 1 is also closer to the 0 than on the other two. -

Penny Acquisition of the week
terrysoldpennies replied to Paulus's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I'm inclined to agree with Ian that its ghosting from a die clash with the toothed edge on the reverse die, as the shape of the marks don't look to be formed from the letters in LC WYON , and anyway LC WYON would have to be present on the reverse die to be transferred over onto the obverse die. So F16 for me -

It also looks from your picture to have a narrower rim than the normal Rev. 4 . Its an interesting one , ether of your possible explanations could be true Richard. -

I can say its a definite Obverse 7 as its the older portrait of Victoria and the gap between Victorias head and the out edge of the coin is large, on the 6 its quite close -

Hi Pete, the Ja often has a slightly rotated N in ONE as this example also has, so as the coin is both worn and damaged, and I couldn't be sure, I said it looks like a Ja, ????? -
