Both of these are examples of classic pareidolia !!

Exactly. There are no H’s on those two pennies, or faces on Mars or images of Jesus in toast.

You might see a flying orange flying man-baby in london  complaining about us being late for the third world war  (well they were late for the first two weren't they?)

Interestingly, when I zoomed into your 1877 (no H) I can see a similar ghostly H. And it's in just about the correct position too.

And no, I don't really believe it's an H either, but the more I stare at it the clearer it becomes.

 

I have sinced found a few other coins with a ghostly H including another 1875.  If you look at the attached image there is an 8 a C and also some guys face  in the circle with long hair and a pointy nose any ideas who it is?

Blimey, I’m out of this one…where does it stop?

Come back Dr Larry, all is forgiven!

I guess what it comes down to is you! Is your search for the H on this date over? I strongly suspect it is not, in the same way I strongly suspect no one else would put that coin in their collection and tick the box.

BUT, as I said, a great post, with some decent miles put in on your part!

Well you could , but you would be deluding yourself.
