I've also got a few lots in the DNW auction on 6 Apr.  There are one or two varieties on offer.

The following posts give a few notes and some pictures for the lot with no picture.

Lot 764 has no pictures, so here is the 1884 6d (NB the scratches are on the plastic of the slab), 1886 6d and 1889 6d (2+C).

Lot 791 contains a nice 1913 shilling, a fairly scarce 1921 shilling 4+E and the scarcer 1st type (non-ME) 1926 threepence (despite what it is says on the slab!).

Remind me which that is? I'm looking to upgrade my 1921 (pre-1920 obverse) which I've only got in VF.

It's the scarcest of the four shallow recut portrait die pairings. I suspect the one you'd be interested in is the more deeply engraved portrait (3+D), which was in the previous sale and went for a steal.

It was a combined lot with 5 other shillings, so if all you wanted was the 1921 3+D there would have been some "baggage" to dispose of.

Sorry for the late reply, don't know how I missed the question, but it was EF.
