Hi all. Thanks for getting back to me. Your the experts. I have only been on the pennies for a couple of years. I saw in the CCGB that a 1876 no H was sold by Bamford in 2006. I have seen a few 1876 H pennies in a worn state , worse than this one. Which is pretty bad way. They all show signs of a H but i could not see a mark where the H should be. The 7 is badly worn but why would this area and the H have worn away more than the surrounding numbers? Thanks again for your replies.
