robster Pillar of the Community Australia 674 Posts	Posted 07/12/2013 9:20 pm I knew if I said something outrageously stupid and incorrect it would bring out the experts.! Mission accomplished Robster.! Daveyn, please meet nealeffendi, an awesome source of information on all things die related.! My reference to 1922 Sydney Reverse is 2nd edition Renniks pre decimal varieties. Hope you can help me with pictured coin with flat based lettering- always looking to dust.!! Thanks Neal once again.!! Report this Post to the Staff
The Unicorn Pillar of the Community Australia 750 Posts	Posted 07/12/2013 9:59 pm Robster, it's so nice to have people who have spent a lot of time and effort to secure knowledge being so willing to share that with us. Both Nealeffendi and Fordprefect have assisted me greatly understanding the 1920 pennies and I know they'll be there if I am ever game enough to open up my 1919's. (I won't even begin to mention the names of the multitude of other's who have expertise in so many areas of numismatics, it would be endless).

nealeffendi Pillar of the Community Australia 852 Posts	Posted 07/13/2013 10:10 am An update I just went through 146X 1922 pennies that I had put aside after taking out the wide dates (wide dates only account for perhaps 2% and are all FBL with English obverses). The breakdown was as follows; 110 English Obverse, of which 102 were CBL and 8 were FBL. The 8 FBL were from 2 reverse dies with 7 coins having a lump under the F (LTH OF A)and a single coin having a ridge through the inner circle beads to the top left of the date. The 36 Indians were as follows; 13 coins from the 1920 Obverse dies prepared in India (and finished in Melb before dispatch to Sydney). At least 2 Obverse dies and 2 reverse dies. Both the Reverse dies were CBL. The 23 coins from the 1921 Obverse dies had 11 coins with FBL and 12 with CBL. The FBL die (or dies) was neither of the FBL dies paired with the English Obverse.
