I have picked up bucket loads of coins in the last week and am enjoying sorting through them. This one interested me - obviously Tredegar 1812 penny, but very clearly overstruck on a Union Copper Company Birmingham Penny. Is this unusual? I see lots of 18th/19th century tokens, but have not noticed an overstrike before.

This finally arrived from France after being highlighted on the forum . 1874H 7 over 7 . very poor , but a clear example .

I have just listed a slightly battered 1854 over 3 penny here on eBay, Mike, if you or any other forum members are interested. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1854-over-3-Genuine-overdate-Victoria-copper-penny-Very-rare-and-seldom-seen/284038614822?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160727114228%26meid%3Dfe85d40bab1b47699207c764eec150ee%26pid%3D100290%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D203128428461%26itm%3D284038614822%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2060778&_trksid=p2060778.c100290.m3507 it is very edgy and has been historically cleaned, but it IS a genuine specimen.

Nothing special but I finally managed to spot an 1895 2mm in a pile of Victorian pennies (I think!).
