D of DEI?

I doubt it but will this add any premium to a otherwise normal coin?

 

Thanks.

Only if it was struck on a rectangular blank, like yours.

Are you bored again Rob?

 I can only real talk about my observations on copper or bronze pennies, as that is my major interest . I find that over stamped letters/ numbers are extremely common on coins up to about 1863 though some can still be seen through to the 20th century . The last I think being 1945.  The ones that are of interest to me and I would guess a lot of collectors are the ones that are dramatically out of place or triple struck .  Some examples below

 

Triple struck Y quite sort after , note the G and D overstruck but of little interest 

 

Here's Y over Y dramatically out of place

 

8 over 8 

 

And just look at this one !!

I was under the impression this forum is for educational purposes. A genuine coin related question IMO is worthy of a relevant response.

For you and any other's please just scroll past if you are not capable of keeping it informative/educational.

Honest answer - absolutely not.

Ok thanks.

[copper123]

there are a few where a small ish premium can be gained the 1850 farthing 5 over much lower 5 comes to mind

I guess seeing some of these for the first time its a rarity, working through my hoard and seeing double stamped and clashes for the first time I get this feeling "Wow Ive found a rarity!" ........moving on I've calmed with education.... Still is is great to see these and find them...  👍

With all due respect to Rob, I too have noticed that he’s coming over as being a little less tolerant than usual…I think this could be, in part, on account of the gulf between his knowledge and the cerebral challenges he getting on this forum nowadays, if ever, to be fair!

Top tip, though…as infirm, elderly, decrepit, grey, miserable and grumpy as he may be…he’ll be worth much more to your numismatic journey onside 😉
