1819 (9 over 8) crown

Recommended Posts

My 1818 crown has the first 1 with very faint RH serif and the second 1 with no RH serif. CGS documented this as a "variety" but the reason is probably due to die filled and so it isn't really a variety. 

I have just noticed that the 1819 (9 over 8 ) crown also have the same features: weak RH serif with the first 1 and no RH serif with the second 1. I wonder if the die for my 1818 was later changed into the overdate?

My 1818 is the first photo. The second is an example sold by LCA. The third is an example currently on sale on Chards.
