Coinery Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Many thanks, Dave and Mark, very much appreciated! I'll be putting them on my resource website for E1, just as soon as I've the time to create it!www.elizabeth-coins.co.uk - maybe never, but I hope not! Quote
Coinery Posted November 11, 2014 Author Posted November 11, 2014 I've only just realised, when cutting bust 1F out, that the topmost curl at the back of the head has broken away somewhere between the Cross-Crosslet and the Martlet/Pheon, which means nearly all the sixpences will be with the broken curl. Anyway, it would be relatively easy to date the fracture from the bust usage across the groats and the 6ds! One day! Quote

Paulus Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 Great Job Stu, much better than you find in most numismatic literature! Are you intending to document all of the bust varieties in this format? Quote
Coinery Posted November 12, 2014 Author Posted November 12, 2014 Yes, there's 49 busts in all, but a few extra will be added to highlight the break-up of the punches. For example there's the crumbling crown of bust 1H and the significant chunk of hair missing from bust 1F - only just spotted that! Quote
