[declanwmagee 122]

What do you need, Jim? Identification and value, or do you need an 1853?

[Coinery 926]

Welcome aboard, Jim! Always good to get some new blood on here.

There are plenty of Victoria Bronze AND silver specialists frequenting the forum corridors so, once you've clarified further, you'll have no shortage of people wanting to discuss and advise!

Enjoy the ride!

Welcome Jim

No need to shout.

There are a few Peck nrs for this date (and varieties not attributed)

The pre 1860> copper 1d's are IMO a beautiful coin.There are a couple of bank account

hitters.A nice series.

Totally agree! I'd definitely start from both ends with a penny collection!

Hi Jim. Any chance of a closeup photo? The colons on these are prone to be a bit all over the place, both in terms of their size, depth, and alignment.

here's a selection, but we'd like to see your example...

Photos needed I'm afraid! You can directly insert images up to 150KB into a post using the 'More Perly Options' button below a reply, or add a link to a photohosting site such as flikr or photobucket via the picture icon at the top.
