Hi All, I am brand new to the forums as I have just started up the hobby again after 20 years and was told this is the place to find the best knowledge base. I have a couple of 1862 Victorian pennies which both have some considerable differences. Not sure what I have as I can't seem to find any variants that match. Coin one has no hair between the ribbon and the back of her neck, Coin 2 has a very strong triangular section of hair with multiple strands. Coin 2 has what appears to be a standard date, Coin 1's date has a much larger gap between the 6 and 2. Can anyone help me with identification. I have added photo's. I also noticed that on coin 1 there is an extra raised section from her head to the outer rim almost on the same angle as the "B" from BRITT. Maybe a die crack causing a ridge? Please see second date in next post! Any help would be gratefully appreciated. Thank you all so much in advance
