By the way , its a nice coin well struck and atractive

that would go back into the melting pot as a badly struck coin if the mint were doing their job right

It might make it easy if you have a copy of peck does look like a raised dot on georges shoulder if that helps

It has a tiny A+M on the bottom rev exergue which means its a joint effort between Allan and Moore

I must admit I am disturbed with the reverse one irish symbol one Scottish and yet two English Did someone hate the Welsh?

oh matron ! Its the same size as the Moore gothic crowns

There are more recent examples like the pobjoy mint £1 isle of man coins in the early 1980's at the ideal home exhibitions they had a special privy mark on them. It might be interesting to get a list of exibitors from the great exhibition , to be honest i cannot see the royal mint being there but the heaton mint or moore could have been . I am asuming the new model crown came after the much more common gothic example produced in 1848 or a little later

I must admit it looks very dated for the time (About 1850 ) a time when the british empire was massively expanding IMHO but at the time it's a perfectly good pattern coin

I now have my own New model crown and a total beauty it is to I got it for less than three figures so am really happy its in about EF grade

Are you sure britannia is a british lady? I strongly suspect she was made up by the romans who would be very unlikely to put a local near naked woman of ancient british origins on one of their coins

I picked up most of my britannias when silver was cheap , the best buy was the 2018/19. /20 oriental border coins 2018 was a 100,000 mintage low but no to low , the other two were 50,000 so the complete set is highly collectable now and rarely seen retails around £260
