Nick Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 I've also got a few lots in the DNW auction on 6 Apr. There are one or two varieties on offer. The following posts give a few notes and some pictures for the lot with no picture. 1 Quote
Nick Posted March 18, 2021 Author Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) Lot 764 has no pictures, so here is the 1884 6d (NB the scratches are on the plastic of the slab), 1886 6d and 1889 6d (2+C). Edited March 18, 2021 by Nick 4 Quote
Nick Posted March 18, 2021 Author Posted March 18, 2021 Lot 781 contains a scarce 1911 sixpence variety (2+A). Quote
Nick Posted March 18, 2021 Author Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) Lot 791 contains a nice 1913 shilling, a fairly scarce 1921 shilling 4+E and the scarcer 1st type (non-ME) 1926 threepence (despite what it is says on the slab!). Edited March 18, 2021 by Nick Quote

Remind me which that is? I'm looking to upgrade my 1921 (pre-1920 obverse) which I've only got in VF. Quote

It's the scarcest of the four shallow recut portrait die pairings. I suspect the one you'd be interested in is the more deeply engraved portrait (3+D), which was in the previous sale and went for a steal. Quote
