Dearborn Moderator United States 100060 Posts	Posted 04/08/2024 9:22 pm OK Dalt have a look here on ebay: ebay item number:176323908440 Collecting since 1972.

daltonista Pillar of the Community United States 1060 Posts	Posted 04/09/2024 01:03 am Interesting, Dearborn...a silver-plated halfpenny, and the "back" in the ebay listing is clearly the reverse of a halfpenny. The "back" you posted earlier had a wreath-like effect toward the rims and what looks like part of a shield at the top. Meanwhile, a Google search on "repousse dies" led me to this photo on Pinterest captioned "Original die set used to pop out LADY LIBERTY on a popout coin." Can't tell where it originated, but I'm learning a lot of new stuff today.

Dearborn Moderator United States 100060 Posts	Posted 04/09/2024 03:35 am Well that is interesting. the details of the face dis looks raised not incuse a I would expect to see. and the reverse die seems to lack the details and appears incuse (to me) to imprint the raised face on a planchet. Maybe it is just the lighting that is tricking my eyes.. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

PaddyB Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 945 Posts	Posted 04/09/2024 03:50 am As to the back of the unidentified brooch/coin above - a lot of the detail is similar to a Victorian silver sixpence. Some of the leaves are difficult to match, and the device under the patent stamp should be the top of a crown and clearly isn't. Maybe that was part of the die used to create the design, along with the patent block? Report this Post to the Staff

zookeeperz Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 695 Posts	Posted 04/09/2024 8:24 pm @Dearborn it was a raid from your backyard . I guess it's one of the very few coins that the US almost completely ignores. I got the 1946-1949-1950-1951. All from the US . It may take a while for them to surface but when they do it is so worth the wait. Report this Post to the Staff
