Out of interest, how many of you out there have managed to find the Type A reverse on the 2006 10p piece? These seem very hard to find.

The 1 in the 10 points at an edge dot. These all went into circulation and seem to be a mere fraction of the mintage. All the mint sets and the vast bulk of circulation issues are Type B (between dots). See photos below.

Thus far I've found 2 Type A's out of change and bought a third from eBay last week. A pretty low result rate for 17 years of searching for them. Rarer than the Kew Gardens 50p?

Type A below.

It probably is but the national papers will never publicise this so it will always be a rare coin that nobody knows about

True... Especially since the mint has been withdrawing the cupronickel issues and melting them down since 2013. They'll be rarer still.

I’m aware of the 1992 10p varieties, but no others.

Is there a breakdown anywhere?
