Geoff T Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 HiGot this couple of days agoScan is in 1200 look at the G in GratiaColin - I tried to email this to you but i think it disappeared!!CheersThis is why I'm developing quite an affair with George IV farthings. Given the small date run, the incidence of errors and varieties is remarkably high and by no means completely documented, so this one doesn't surprise me at all. I have inter alia an 1825 R over R in REX which I've not seen listed anywhere.Geoff Quote

I have inter alia an 1825 R over R in REX which I've not seen listed anywhere.GeoffThe George IV series does have a vast amount of repunching done, and cataloguing it would be difficult if not impossible. I have tried to pull out the clear repunches, such as the 1825 R/R which is very clear. I only know of two thers to date, so it appears to be quite a scarce one.This is the first 1826 I have seen with the G repunched. I have examples of this for the 1825 and 1822 farthings. Thats another one I iwll have to get added Quote
RLC35 Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Colin,Do you have this one? It is a 1822 Farthing with D over D. It is clear enough to see with the naked eye.Bob C. Quote
