As Jackie Gleason/Peter Griffin would say "She's been punched, right in the kisser". Even my LIPS are not that big - perhaps her name is Liberty Jagger?  Very lowball 1869 penny - but its a 1869, a rare year!!! |

Lowball 1846 Halfcrown   Strictly gap filling here, but finding high grade 1840s UK halfcrowns is like finding gold doubloons in a silver mine.   Lowball 1889 shilling, but its the scarce "Small head" type. |

I still don't have 1869 in my lowball date set for the type (also missing 1878, another rare year, and I think a few years in the 1880s and 1890s, because lowball examples are less common for these later dates). I was proud of finding an 1864 (Crosslet 4, as it happens) for the set, but 1869 is another level. I hope I would find one eventually. |
