Coins4U,

I have three 1822 farthing. My best one, in my set, does not have the double D, but both spares have it. It is very sharp and clear on both, just like yours. They are both just average circulated.

From coins I have scanned to date I get the ratio as about 1 in 25 as having the D over D. They are extremely difficult to find in better grades. From Colin Cookes lists there are very few occurrences of them being listed.

It is a very clear overstrike.

As for value, very little if any difference in low grade.

Few dealers would think it notable, so few would charge extra.

In high grade maybe a premium if you sold to a very specialist

audience.

I paid £16 for mine, about 4 years ago - without really seeking one

out.
