Recommended Posts

so I have a 1893 Shilling.... good condition 👍

I then read a reference to a 1893 small lettering but no images were provided.... following on I then found...

Small obverse lettering with rare die pairing. Davies 1010A - dies 1C

(the reverse type typically found on small rose 1895 and 1896 shillings with lines extending from the gaps between petals on the rose)

by chance is anyone up on this reference??

You have an example of dies 1A I believe.  Here is a picture of a 1C:
