PaddyB Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 945 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 5:14 pm OK - 1874 pennies are more numerous in varieties than most. For the 1874H there are 2 main obverses and 3 main reverses giving 6 principal varieties before you even start looking at over dates and proofs! I believe yours is Obverse 7 and reverse H, making it F73. It is pretty common - getting an "N3", so similar to your 1875. In that condition you might get a pound or two if someone is new to variety collecting, but no more than that. Report this Post to the Staff

Hogarth Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 735 Posts	Posted 05/17/2020 08:23 am I'm hopeless at recognising minor varieties in the bun series. Could you ID this one please Paddy? Many thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
PaddyB Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 945 Posts	Posted 05/17/2020 11:29 am OK - I believe that is Obverse 6 (Slightly younger head and colons after DG and FD both to teeth). Reverse is G - large date with the sea crossing the border. 6+G is F66, which is another N3 on the rarity scale, but a very nice example. I ope that helps. Report this Post to the Staff
