This is an extremely difficult Davies number to find in any grade, but in a gorgeous aUNC like this, it's extremely rare. The vast majority of No Die number 1879s are Reverse D. This one is Reverse C - there are some subtle differences in the wreath, but the giveaway is the wider date, 11 beads, rather than the 10 found on Rev D. Rare date in ESC regardless.
A high level of detail and a very pleasant lustre. Nice.
Although 1887 is the commonest date of the Victoria shillings, there are, of course, three types. And not all of them are common.
Hastily withdrawn and replaced with the Wreath Reverse, as, after a quick gild, these were being passed off as half-sovereigns.
Not always the easiest variety to spot, but you can see it clearly in the hand. I have all sorts of fun collecting Victorian silver by Davies number. There's so much more to find than just doing straight date runs. I don't think you'll find one better
Beautiful example with an exquisite lustre. You can't go wrong with top grade Bun Pennies. Peck: Scarce, Freeman: R5
Like a fool, I started this series filling dates, so it took me about half a dozen upgrades to get them this far. Should have gone straight in at this level, really. No reason not to.
In my experience, high grade halfpennies are harder to come by than pennies from this era. More difficult than most other denominations, I'd say.
Scarce. There is no trickier date than 1938 in this series.
