I think this is a F78? Reverse Gouby ja so must be F72 or F78 if my understanding is correct, and I'm fairly sure it's obverse Gouby L.

Bramah lists it (10b) and describes it as rare. That big white circle is unusual though.- 1 reply

1. Bramah 12c - he says: "All the listed varieties are rare". 2. Agree with your die pairing. Nice pick up, Paddy. -
I like World of Coins too.

So do you think it's just a lighter strike so the 6 wasn't fully punched? Otherwise I don't understand it - where did a "wiry" 6 punch come from? -

I'd like to know what a "wiry" 6 is? Where else is it used / seen? -
I got a fake £1 coin in change the other day. I said to the cashier "Excuse me love, this is a Euro".

mrbadexample replied to craigy's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
People have been wasting their money on shiny things for centuries. It's not a new thing. I actually think this is more honest than most of the recent Royal Mint junk. It doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't, unlike the mint "coins" that were never intended to be spent, in a multitude of different forms, all designed to deceive the collector as to their investment potential etc etc. -
