I have 2 still currently listed on ebay

Good work ! I'm having trouble finding the 1946 ONE'. Although I spend alot more time searching for other types.

Thanks, the amount of time i have spent lookng for the more common coins I'm starting to think will be easier to find and buy coins which are attributed. Im lucky so far most of the coins I have found are types I could never afford.

I recently found this 1898 penny on ebay. I believe it is Gouby type Ca, which is rare, but I cannot easily find and auction (or other) sale information for this sub-variety. Does anyone have any sale information which might help me value please?

Both of these are examples of classic pareidolia !!

Interestingly, when I zoomed into your 1877 (no H) I can see a similar ghostly H. And it's in just about the correct position too. And no, I don't really believe it's an H either, but the more I stare at it the clearer it becomes.

That's long gone, I may have the pictures at home, I will check when I can. What type of coin is it? I can't search for UIN but the AI will find Half crowns for example.

Don't ignore that the original Reddit post was made by someone called Brexit-Cereal... !

It's amazing how the letters are so neatly and completely removed! (Almost looks like it was intentionally done.) Since the missing letters are unfortunately "REX" and "FID D", it might eventually be given the nickname "abdication 5p" if more examples are known. Long live our King, and long may he reign!

Having dismissed the H as an anomaly, I might have to revise my opinion as I saw the face of Jesus on my slice of toast this morning...

It was thanks to Michael's footnote in that - about the 1946 ONE' penny being scarcer than the 1926ME - that I finally managed to get Spink to include it in their Standard Catalogue.

You've better eyesight than me then! I was looking hard for just that but couldn't see it...

I'd be happy to rate that EF (perhaps AEF on the obverse, just a trace of extra wear on the hair?)

You're a day early...

yes, back to normal

Yes, much better now.

One of your better coins 👏👏👏

I’m struggling, I can’t even find the LCGS population report…is it still a thing? Can you still check authenticity of the old slabs or view other UINs?

Should be ok now. Some internet nasties were attacking the old predecimal site that I kept online in a secret place.

Having .... the .... same ... problem .........

Reported to host...

I was going to say that it's fine on my PC but then it took around 20 seconds to come up.

Yes, awful…couldn’t load it at all for most of yesterday 😩
