They are from two different mints; the one on the left is from the Board of Works mint, the one on the right is from the Board of Revenue mint. Despite being so old, they are nevertheless extremely cheap and common - as you might expect for coins that were issued in such large quantities for such a long time period. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
