  1. Could someone confirm or deny reverse K please? Flat rim and no windows to lighthouse. Or maybe reverse J
  2. Yes, it did arrive eventually, after a great deal of pleading and a phone call to Canada. Unfortunately, I don't have the means to take, up close, detailed photos of both numbers and it would be unfair to ask Ian again. Wish I knew someone else, who could undertake such a task? Maybe similar to others that have appeared on this thread. Perchance. 😁
  3. The same coin, as the scar by her arm proves. I did check when it arrived. My photo shows the coin in the condition that I received it, so it has had a good wipe before it was sent. Thank you for your concerns though.
  4. And a cropped sellers photo.
  5. Well, I don't think that it could be a wider gap if it tried.
  6. I'm thinking obverse 8 as opposed to 7 because : Base of bust and the F D colons are further away from lin circle, than a 7. And the first I of Victoria doesn't tilt to the left, as it does on 7. Not the best of coins but I'm pleased to have found an example. Judging from previous posts, population was 9, so still a rarity.
  7. Yes, that's it. The coins are well mixed up. Heart leapt when I spotted the ' mule '. I think it's a HALP. It is a known pairing for this variety. I'll post some pics when it arrives.
  8. Would anyone know the scarcity of the 5 + E 1861 HALP please?
  9. I've read the entire forum and no disrespect to anyone, Peter stands out the most. He is the guy that I've laughed most to. And his posts informing us of his wife's death are heart wrenching, to say the least. I never had any contact with the man but have to say, that learning of his death, has saddened me greatly. A screenshot of one of his final posts, shows that he was thinking of the future. But who knows? RIP Peter.
  10. Welcome to the collective. I lurk on the sidelines and ask silly questions occasionally. Bob.
  11. I see what you mean, but just a trick of the light I think. Another photo.
  12. Definitely an E. So the consensus was correct.
  13. Now that it's arrived, the obverse to my coin above. Hence the question. Hope to find time, in the next few days, to check the reverse.
  14. I think it is. 7 berries. And the lighthouse looks to be correct. Spotted it yesterday and watching. Pity about the wreckless abuse but I could live with it as an example, at the right price.
  15. Evening all. Thinking reverse D on this one please. Opinions either way appreciated.
  16. Which brings me to this one, also within the forum. What appears to be a 6 over 6. However, I think that I can see evidence of an underlying 2, the diagonal of the 2, again in the circle of the 6. This may tie in Rob's example. Although this may just be wishful thinking.
  17. Thanks Jon. That's reassuring to know. I've finally found Rob's post that I was looking for, which shows an example. I can't make out the 2 under the 6. More a 6 over 6. But I think that I can see the pointy end of the 6, above the centre line of the 2.
