absence of uniformity

To keep things more coin centric and on the subject in hand Im not going to get involved with anything else and it will avoid as said above me taking offence.

Im just going about my quest looking for input on a theory I have put forward and like other posts I feel I have to prove or justify myself. When all I have done and doing is just learning and asking a simple question; what do you think about this ! And instead here we are again with me having to justify/prove that I started collecting penny varieties in Jan. Why does it even matter? I would rather do without the indirect compliments and just stick to coins. Maybe il say this; lets keep it coin related and the question in hand and if you do not wish to get involved and or bothered by me or my question or whatever please just scroll past.

I dont remember asking for financial advice or about purchasing this coin.. As I said it was purchased prior to posting. The coin was cheap enough its a fair buy just for a standard coin in the condition it is. I said I wont post here with questions about my coins so you dont feel party to or obliged to respond but thinking about it you could just scroll on by if you dont want to get involved or do not wish to participate.

Rim edge looks Identical to the image you attached and perfectly normal to me.

Thanks, please see the attached image to see the normal rim edge. No rolling or machined IMO.

The coin was purchased prior to posting here.. To save you being party to any of it il refrain from posting questions about my coins here.

That's fine, but do you think the coin/question of this post is unusual in terms of the apparent thickness. Nobody addressed it. Everyone wants to talk about knowledge or language. Does the appearance of the this halfpenny coin look thicker than normal using the limited info I have put forward. I purchased the coin so will find out sooner rather later anyway. I didnt want to ask the seller for a weight for obvious reason's.

What exactly are you referring to ? Im here asking a question which would suggest I dont have the "knowledge" I exclusively use Richard's website Michael Freemans book and the LCA website. Between those three sources of information the only detailed info availible I'm missing is from the other specialists. Have you noticed nearly all of my questions are not related to anything written by M Gouby........ Because I dont have access to any of it or Dracott etc. I use the info availible to me I dont retain any of the knowledge. Every single coin I look or come across I check it against the info I have availible to me. Its a question of Probability all thats seen here is the very few leads that actually have potential that I cant exclude myself as nothing. It really is as simple as that. Im super intense with my research and efforts, as I have explained to you previously you get out what you put in. I was lucky enough to find a couple of super rare coins which gave me a huge boost of motivation. I dont really have much else to say about this.

In this post the one single numismatic term which I used is Flan.. The coin question is listed in black and white including the word flan. I asked the seller of the coin "does the rim of the coin have damaged" In order to obtain images of the edge of the coin without raising suspicion. And that's it. I dont even know for sure if the pairing is even 10+J. (So this could all be a complete waste of time) Richard's website lists the halfpenny types, the die pairings and the rarity rating so no knowledge is required. I have just noticed a coin which looks thick and by chance its possibly 10+J zero knowledge was required to reach this point. It was logical to measure the letters on a coin I have and then apply those measurements to the image IMO just basic pragmatic approach to my own question.

Do you resent me for putting in the legwork and finding the coins I have found? You cant sit back overlook the coins then to make yourself feel better about it by start chucking around accusations. I'm not weird for your shortcomings.

Why should I constantly have to prove myself. You bought no value to this discussion instead you suggest im being dishonest. Im really starting to find it rude. What is so hard to understand about asking a valid question? You have been quite supportive to my journey so far then suddenly you getting all weird.

What are you talking about ? I found a coin online for sale that is a 1874 H which I have identified as 10+J ( I could be wrong) And it would appear it has has a thick rim. I'm simply asking the forum for advice.............. I dont understand these assumptions/accusations what's it all about? what is the problem. I'm asking a genuine question to the forum looking for advice and thoughts on my theory I have put forward. What is so mind boggling to you about this? The questions is really simple. Yes I have used my brain in producing this question why is that so alarming? Tell me what is weird? What's not elementary? pitch me? explain to me what you are getting at

Just from this image alone would you not agree the flan thickness appears a similar width to the height to the C in Victoria?

I just seen on LCA website there is a 1874 H Thick flan coin rated R20 listed as 2mm thick... When comparing the imaged coin to the LCA example I cant see any differences in the die pairing. The imaged coins is in alot better condition than the LCA coin which sold for £600. They state a EF example sold for £3042.

The coin is 1874 H 10+J and I noticed this listed for 10+J : 1874H 10+J Thick flan R20
