Managed to get hold of a March 1974 Coin Monthly, which was one I suddenly realised was missing. Lo and behold there is an article in there about the 1858/3 penny, by one L.J.Bamford, who I assume is actually the late Laurie Bamford. Excellent article which I've photographed so it can be read by those possibly interested in it. He also mentioned the 1854/3.

Well he's never going to be able to say "hands-face-space" again at a press briefing without the while country falling about laughing.

This doesn't address Bamford's point about the low likelihood of a die lying around for six years and not reused. However, it could be explained by my pet thesis about the postponement of bronze from 1858 to 1860 being the reason why there are just so many 1858 varieties - if they'd used up older dies.1 point

I would like to point out that as well as large and small dates on pennies towards the end of the copper series , they also exist on half pennies and farthings . The penny itself is a much more complicated series than the halfpenny or farthing with 1858 being the most complex1 point

Thank you to all the members that have posted great and valuable advice on how to get started in collecting coins. Your friendly responses have given me confidence in how to researching and hopefully selling the coins I have been given over the years thus enabling me to purchase coins I am most interested in. Thanks again. Best regards, Greg1 point
