Well Done again! If I was you I would buy a national lottery ticket, about the same odds!

Brilliant acquisition! especially as you are new to collecting varieties. It took me ~20 years to obtain an example. Your coin overall is a good clear example, well done! best of luck with future variety collecting. Bernie.

I advise that you should not store your copper or bronze coins in anything that resembles plastic, such as plastic pockets. The coins will sweat and get verdigris.

Does any reader know when the Royal Mint will be selling 2026 coin sets etc. If my memory serves me correctly they were usually available in December of the previous year.

How about one penny ????????????

You're priceless Richard! 😃

Are you calling ME a moron Richard! LOL 😂🤣 PS. Thought to be the only existing example.

I believe that the different weight coins were produced to test the dies on different width flans. Paul Holland has investigated this , Apparently the weight of the individual new flans was to equate to how many coins could be struck to the weight of one pound. If my memory serves me correct, one particular weight of flans worked out to 30 coins per pound.

It would be more frustrating if a die 7 turned up!!🤣

I agree, but my own patience to have a collection is short! can't wait forever.

Problem is, those "occasions" can be very rare.
