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.

2+D IMO. No LCWyon on Obv 6.

A new purchase 1858 Bramah 26a , First I in Britanniar has no serrifs.

Like most copper varieties scarce in high grade.

 

 

[SilverAge3]

Very nice, PWA.

[PWA 1967]

A new purchase Gouby BP1880Af and a reasonable grade for type.

 

[PWA 1967]

Another decent 1915 Recessed ear purchased not attributed and dont see many in grade.

[Peckris 2]

1915 is by far the scarcer?

[PWA 1967]

Yes Peck ,i sold this one recently that was the best i have seen ,pictured in a slab.

Came across this 1859 penny with quite interesting repairs to all the reverse R's

[terrysoldpennies]

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

[secret santa]

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?

[Martinminerva]

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...

 

[Coinery]

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