DavidUK Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2624 Posts	Posted 08/30/2012 09:58 am I have a little book which is quite good with varieties (I dug it out after that thread where my spinks book failed to give enough information on high and low tides) It lists 5 varieties for 1861 penny (36,449,280 minted) Signature both sides... Signed reverse only... Signed obverse only... No signatures... Bronzed Proof... It doesn't explain fully these varieties though the values don't seem vastely different (Just the bronzed one is way more) and no mention of this small 8. Report this Post to the Staff

DavidUK Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2624 Posts	Posted 08/31/2012 11:44 am It is "Collectors coins of Great Britain" 1988, Richards Pocket reference and price guide. Very out of date and not a big book (it just goes back to mid 1700's) but it does list mitage figures and illustrates things like mint marks and varieties. Report this Post to the Staff
