Nice strong example of what is fast becoming my favourite series. I just love the weight of 'em, and the surface texture, when they're this good.
Although listed in Peck and in Bramah, the Ornamental trident variety with the close colon has, inexplicably, never been listed in Spink.
Initially recognised by Ernest Bramah, in his 1929 publication "A guide to the varieties and rarity of English regal copper coins: Charles II-Victoria, 1671-1860". Bramah catalogued the variety as No. 25c, and described it as Rare. The distinguishing features of this die are the shallow feature to the right of the join between the two loops of the 8 and the little tooth within the lower loop.
I have found myself building up quite a sub-specialisation in 1858 pennies, by Gouby number. At last count nine different types had passed through my hands - all 1858, all different date types and overdates. Micro-collecting at its best!
Some honest wear, but no serious problems, and this is a Rare coin. It's a combination of the first toothed reverse, which retains the LCW signature below the shield, and the first of the obverses that had had the signature under the bust cut away.
Difficult date, not the commonest variety, and a very respectable grade. Peck: Scarce. Freeman: R6.
Lovely mature lustre and very little wear to speak of. Top quality material I think you'll agree.
Beautiful example with an exquisite lustre. You can't go wrong with top grade Bun Pennies. Peck: Scarce, Freeman: R5
Very much scarcer than the normal 1895 penny, the 2mm refers to the gap between the trident and the P. Peck says Very Rare. Freeman says R8.
Lovely grade Edwardian penny with a mature lustre. Makes it all worthwhile.
