    • Deflection ?cannot argue with the info put forward? minimize the discovery by blaming my posting style? The flood of images was necessary because the initial feedback claimed the digital work didn't match the physical coin. Now that clear macro photos prove it is raised metal and a 1:1 geometric match, the case is made. It takes less than a second to look at a macro photo of raised metal, so I suspect the silence is less about fatigue and more about the fact that the evidence speaks for itself. I appreciate it was a lot to look/read  through. However, I wanted to ensure the macro images left no ambiguity regarding the raised metal and the exact letter-punch geometry. A shorter thread might have been easier to read, but it wouldn't have provided the definitive proof needed to move past the initial 'die flaw' theories.  My previous thread V/A of Victoria was stripped back to a single cropped image and short and and simple question and the presentation was viewed as misleading.
    • I rather think the silence may be more down to the sheer flood of posts and pictures you've made just recently? I got halfway through yesterday and then gave up. 
    • It's an acceptable example, but shame about the green.
    • this was found amongst others it seem worth a show , same about Verdigris  opinions and comments welcome 👍  
    • @Bronze & Copper Collector Can I ask please; I see you have many obscure, unlisted or unconfirmed types/ varieties. What is your opinion on this coin based on the images provided please? Given the quiet on this thread ( taking into account views since adding the images), this warrants a professional opinion, because clearly the die flaw theory is now redundant, otherwise this would have been echoed like other questions or statements that were immediately refuted previously. The only way I can interpret the silence on this one is confirmation of my own deduction unless you have reason to think/prove otherwise. The coin will be catalogued in my collection as I/T until I can bring this to the attention of relevant people / bodies in this field and the royal mint. Thank you, Im grateful for this probable confirmation be it indirect. The silence speaks volumes. Or am I completely wrong and if so please explain why? To those who mentioned wasteing time and die flaws prove me wrong i will gratefully accept hearing the reasons why.....! And if nothing is put forward I can only assume it is infact a unrecorded  1874 H I/T variety. We can all see the images, there is not much else to say and its looking probable this is the reason my claim has not been challenged/ refuted as of yet.
