hazelman Posted January 2, 2020 Author Posted January 2, 2020 What grade would you give it? Is it still so rare? Quote

After dancing around the house I re-read your reply - so its not a Gouby BP1860BB which is Freeman 8B, but rather Gouby BP1860E which is freeman 6. Is that correct? Quote

hazelman Posted January 2, 2020 Author Posted January 2, 2020 OK i see it the inner rim is thinner hence Obverse C right? Quote
jelida Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 ‘Fraid so, looks like an ordinary F6. But still a nice example. I think you were misunderstood, you were thought to be asking if it was an 1860 BB ie beaded border, rather than the Gouby reference. Jerry 2 Quote

Is that correct? Yes, sorry Fred, as Jerry says, I thought you meant British Penny 1860 beaded border, which you did but in the sense of Gouby's BB reference. 1 Quote
hazelman Posted January 2, 2020 Author Posted January 2, 2020 Easy mistake I must learn to reference correctly Quote
secret santa Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 The rims on the rare obverses A and B are much wider, much like the reverse on the coin you posted above. 1 Quote
