Different Obverse Types of 1773 Farthings

[Master Jmd 80]

On colin cooke's site, he lists obverse 1 and 2 for 1773 farthings...what are these different obverse types?

[Chris Perkins 228]

Obverse 1 was used exclusively from 1770-73. Obverse 2 was used 1774 and 1775.

Peck says:

Obv 2 differs from Obv 1 in that the nose is straighter, the eye lashes are accentuated, the lips are thinner, and the chin is more receeding.

...sorry if it is a bit much to ask

[Chris Perkins 228]

Bloody right it is. I'll PM you something.

[Master Jmd 80]

Thanks Chris, much apprieciated

Why do you want the Peck numbers if you don't have a copy of the book?

[Master Jmd 80]

so that i can put the Bmc numbers into my database of my owned coins

but now, thanks to chris, i shouldn't need to bother about peck numbers

[Emperor Oli 0]

I thought that but if you have no reference to look them up, what's the point in doing it?

[Half Penny Jon 0]

I am also puzzled by this

We are frequently puzzled by the behaviour of young Master JMD. Let's just leave him peacefully to his own devices!
