Hi, 

To my (very) untrained eye, these seem to be the same obverse with the exception, possibly, of the last T in Britt. Can anyone help?

Again, many thanks for any help and happy to share better pictures if needed.

We really need much better focussed pictures I’m afraid to make a valid judgement. The close-ups are great and show a variety of die repairs - very common with these early bronze-  but you need to take clear full resolution pics of the coins and shrink them with a program such as ‘Irfanview’ to get them to a size below 500 k suitable for posting.

Good luck!

If the signature is on the bust they are Obverse 2 if the signature is between the bust and the border teeth its Obverse 4 . They both appear to be Obverse 2's. Obverse 3 is same as Obverse 2 but the colons after D  are in line with the border teeth and the R of REG points between two teeth
