Hello,
I recently bought an almost uncirculated 1862 uk penny and when inspecting it -noticed that the R in Victoria wasn't quite right.
It had no lower serifs and is struck over an R with a shorter downstroke.
On looking for further coins of the same type -I could only see one which was sold by London Coins on 5/6/22 in Auction 177 Lot 1846 who described the anomoly as very clear and very unusual !
This coin is an 'unlisted variety' by both Freeman and Gouby and I just wondered if there is anyone else in this forum that has seen this particular anomoly ?
Also, should I be informing anyone that this is a second coin of this type to be found....?
Thanks
JB
ps I tried to upload a fuller picture of this coin but there seems to be restrictions....
