So as I said, I'm wondering if what I have is F- 6+D, or if I'm totally off, and also potentially what Gouby would call this.  Thanks again.

1915 is by far the scarcer?

I thought this 1926 ME  I picked up recently for £250 was quite a lucky find.

I haven't bought much lately but I did get this from the Sovereign Rarities auction - unusual wide date.

Just picked this 1861 penny up…is it 8/6 or just wishful thinking?

Wishful thinking, I'm afraid.

The 8 over 6 type is very clear as can be seen below (courtesy of Richard's penny website). Having said that, yours has signs of doubled entry/strengthening on the 1 and the 6 of the date, so the 8 too might have had work done...685667053_Screenshot2024-06-11212432.jpg.7716d7d4502b78ac3478906e5de71c90.jpg

Ah, ok, many thanks for that…was looking on Richard’s site, too, but didn’t see that example! :)
