These early cupronickels are a lot harder to find of this quality now than their silver sisters. See if you can find one better.
The usual streaky lustre that often makes 1884 bronze ever so difficult to photograph, but little or no wear.
The significantly scarcer Reverse C can be distinguished by the following features: cross on crown points between border beads base of the crown is shallow the line below SHILLING is short Davies suggested that this variety was more than twice as scarce as Obverse D
This example has a die repair to the 8 of the date that, unusually, isn't catalogued by Gouby. Ex-Ian Fall.
What I like about George V florins is that not all the dates are the same - there are wide fluctuations in scarcity from one year to the next. Great series.
V.R.Court, in his legendary survey of penny varieties found in circulation at the time of decimalisation, found that less than 12% of 1940 pennies were Single Exergue Line. I think it's significantly less now, in the collecting world.
Look how sharp the feathers on the wings of the harp are, and the lions faces. Compare it with yours...
There's something about big silver from this era. It seems to mean business. Nice grade, too.
Yes it's the commonest of the four die combinations of 1913 Penny, but it really is a lovely grade - look at the fingers below the trident head.
Now here's something you don't see every day - a 1957 florin in this high a grade. Harder to find than the better known 1959, in my experience.
