will1976 Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 I'm trying to identify the planchet which this penny has been minted on so I can add one to my collection for reference. Weight is 2.6 grams 20mm diameter brass and non magnetic 1 Quote
Chingford Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Going from Proof Sets I have handled and the shape it would be worth looking at Sudan, Swaziland or Ceylon, Royal Mint produced coinage for all around that time Quote
Rob Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 A date would help. The picture is too small. 83, 86 or 88? All you have to do is plough through Krause until you find a suitable match. It's a bit tedious, that's all. Quote

Rob Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Do it systematically, i.e. start at the beginning, otherwise you will be revisiting old territory. Sod here can guarantee it will be Zambia or Zimbabwe Quote
