1895 Penny variation? 5 further apart
terrysoldpennies replied to Weaver's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
There's a narrower type as well, it I think will be in Michael Gouby's next update as BP1895Ba perhaps you could confirm that Pete. -

Maybe it was an 8 that was used on another coin that was in production at the same time in the mint for another country, and accidently found its way into the box of fonts used in the production of the British one penny ? -

Thanks for that clarification Pete, and not sure as to the rarity of each type. -

Hi Jerry , I think Pete is referring to the Two different date widths of the BP1898B with the straight crossing centre bars of the last 8 . Your new example looks as though its the narrower type 10.75 tooth now classified as BP1898Ba , top example in the picture below. The bottom example in the picture shown below is the wider one at 11 teeth with the 8 over a tooth , Pete hasn't said but would probably be BP1898Bb. -
How's your garden looking after fine weather and time?

I see you've used the correct spelling for Berberis , well as I have said on here before, spelling is not my best subject. I started to write my post about the hedge and was not sure how to spell Berberis and so I asked my wife , well she got the wrong end of the stick and being a woman, naturally thought I was referring to the west end store of the same name , and as she is normally excellent at spelling I wrote it down without a second thought . -

That reminds me about the time some years back when I planted a section of hedge with Burberry plants , well what a mistake that was, it was an absolute bar steward , I cut myself to ribbons on the dam thing , well as you can guess it had to go, so that was one lesson I learned the hard way, choose you plant types with care -

The blossoms on my trees this year are amazing , we live on the top of a hill and its not unusual for all the blossoms to blow off, but the last few days have been kind to them and the result is a profusion of colour. Picture of my cherry tree below.- 150 replies

terrysoldpennies replied to Sword's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
It must effect it , in my area all the Post offices have closed so no more buying and selling for the foreseeable future ?? -

Did any of you manage to see the Transit of Venus across the Sun on the 8th June 04 . I was on Holiday at the time in Derbyshire and I was lucky enough to get a very short gap in the clouds . I managed to take this picture through the glass of my welding helmet . -
It wasn't easy , and I suppose that's why the bidding stayed low.

Hi Blake , that's the one I bought and posted on here the other day. its an F28 obverse 5 with reverse G its very rare and on Richards Rare list. Its the only year that obverse 5 is to be found with reverse G.

It does show that it was paired with at leased two different obverse dies, and possible more. have you any idea how scarce or rare they are Richard ? . -

i've just noticed that yours is paired with a different Obverse as it has a Narrow Date , my example has a wide date.
