1874 HPenny

[jacinbox 36]

Doubled 4!!! Does anyone have a good pic of this type please?

[Peckris 579]

Are we talking an 1874H penny, or an 1874 H'penny? Your title is misleading!

[Prax 80]

I am not too sure about Ha-pennies.

Just out of interest, was this an LC purchase? It's a lovely coin, but It's been very much contrasted out (if that's the right term) on the reverse right field! Only of relevance if it's an LC coin and we are maybe beginning to see a photographic bias on their part?

Yet another conspiracy!

Some of their earlier photos are pretty dire (is that an oxymoron?) ... and is that a fingerprint in the reverse right field?

It certainly has a high CGS grade and corresponding value:

This has a suggestion of a doubled 4 and a broken 7, sadly horrid grade

[PWA 1967 1,840]

Hi yes on the photos appears to be a fingerprint but wont lose any sleep .The photograph i feel does not do justice as looks spot on.

[PWA 1967 1,840]

Sorry to go off track but i have another penny and the c.g.s picture is not the best.That also has a fingerprint on but doubt you will ever see a better one.

Its not scarce but really nice coin.

Its interesting to see the price Difference in Spink and the new CCGB book for this coin compared to what CGS are saying, but i thought CGS were a GRADING company, so where does their valuation come from. In UNC SPINK has £500 and CCGB £200 compared to a Grading companies £600 Edited January 31, 2015 by azda

Dont forget that CCGB gives prices for both UNC and BU separated by a /

[azda 973]

There i's no BU price for this Peck, Tony Claytons site also has it at £500, so maybe Chris has this One a bit out?

That would explain it Dave - Spink prices are for BU specimens. I'd estimate CCGB would probably give BU as around £400?

[PWA 1967 1,840]

Think the other thing to note.

Its not the best picture and cgs to grade a copper penny at 85 the price goes as to what someone will pay.

They are scarce in this grade as your aware.

Pete.

[Peter 615]

CGS are generating their own pricing structure as have the main 3 TPG's in the US.

I ordered CCGB 2015 and Coin news pricing book.

[jacinbox 36]

Nice one Prax and Pete so we have the double 4 type in both large and small date coins.

[PWA 1967 1,840]

The 1841 has now had the c.g.s price increased to £750
