Hi I have just joined the forum because I would like to ask a question concerning the 1882 No H penny.
If a coin has all the details below and no Heaton mint mark is it certain to be a London minted coin?
Obverse:
- R & I don’t touch.
- the tuft of hair which is not on the Heaton minted examples.
- The hair ribbon which does not terminate in a point like the heaton coins.
- Victoria has a hooked nose compared to the straighter bridge of the nose displayed on the Heaton coins.
Reverse:
- 186 border teeth with 13 teeth between 1 and 2.
- thinner waist/ trident shaft.
many thanks in advance.
