I think the H must have been added seperatelly to each working die as I have found 1881 coins with it positioned all over the place. -
Penny Acquisition of the week
terrysoldpennies replied to Paulus's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I would have thought that in those days the letter repair punches would have been hand made , and therefore every one would be very slightly different , also when the working dies were repaired the depth of the strike would vary in accordance with how hard the punch was struck. -

1912 penny which I call - Titanic on the horizon. I first discovered a very worn example back in 2011 , and first mentioned it on the forum back in 2016. I've been looking for a really good example for the last 11 years, and only now has an uncirculated example finally turned up. It actually looks like a plume of smoke rising from an old coal fired steam ship going over the horizon, and being a 1912 penny its association with the Titanic is obvious. -

I would have said it's a degraded E on the die, repunched with another E ? especially as the P has also deteriorated. -

I've increased the number of pixels and increased the size as much as the picture will allow if it's of any help. -

Yes, it's a really attractive and unusual shape, and is almost perfectly positioned centrally underneath the D. -

I thought ide post this one as it may be of interest to some of you. It's an 1863 penny with a dot, well a dash really under the D in F D in the shape of a half round dot. -

I was lucky enough to pick this one up on the Bay , unattributed as an F763 [ Gouby A1+B ] [ Bulging Eyes ] . Its the same as Example 2 On Richards site . I know Its a little battered, but so hard to find in any condition. I also note that both the Reverses on the Gouby A1+B and the A+B are different in that the date width on the A1+B is wider. -
